Hello everyone,
When i bought my mini there was abit of fire damage between the wind screen and bonnet. I am not able to upload a photo to show all of you currently. Is there anything i can do to repair the fire damage except for spraying it.

Cheers Kieran

You'll be taking the screen out, presumably, to do ther re-painting. Once the screen is out and the bonnet is off, you need to move all the wiring and anything else which gets in the eway. Then rub down the fire damaged area until you have bright metal showing. Treat it with a rust convertor like 'Jenolite', then prime it with the primer you'll be using on the rest of the car and finally finish it with the top colour coats.
