Yeah thats all I did, grey halfords primer, then used some blue paint I had off my VTS, then used clear laqure, didn't take me too long to do as it dried quite quick (when it was sunny)

I didnt use any primer, just some hammerite silver and some lacquer. No bubbling so far! Been a week or two since I did it.
