Get some thinners on a rag, will clean the spraypaint straight off.
Make sure you rinse it off well after tho!

Well,
2 years for an update is a little bit of a pi$$ take!:P
no pictures right now, but here's the info:

5 helicoils in the exhaust manifold outlet
valves ground in
new thermostat
new pipes in the front
cooling system flushed
oil drained
new boot lid
new engine lid
new lock on the boot
head rebuilt with all new gaskets and seals
radiator fans removed, cleaned and painted with hammerite
new cancer bars sanded, primed and painted with hammerite
removed old spoiler from boot lid and side pods
removed aerial
added a revision 3 spoiler
car is running again! no longer overheating and holding temp well.
Got to put the exhaust back on today and then car can get its wheels on and come off its axle stands!
