Thanks very much, I'll give them a call, as you say, what's to lose except the cost of the call and they might be able to give me some useful advice and possibly a worthwhile contact for the future.

Saying that I have seen a car which was painted with gloss paint and a roller, looked alright from a distance. It was an old family friend who painted his car..
my sister used to have a 1275 clubman that had been brush painted with dulux exterior gloss. looked fine as long as you didn't get too close to it, and it did polish up nicely!

I know nothing about their work, never met them or seen where they are but maybe worth the cost of a phone call?
Thats a recommendation if ever I saw one.
