    so rattle cans won't do then? hammerite doesn't give the wide variety of colours!

    I used the hammerite blue spray can, not brush.

    After I did it someone told me any hammerite paint would do the job and it didn't need to be the high temp stuff - this could broaden your choice of colour?
