 Donna Cox on 2022-07-11 18:09:01 | Question:
Is this product suitable for painting old iron guttering on houses? Is the silver colour a very bright silver or dull silver? Thank you! |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Unfortunately no, assuming the iron gutters are bare, clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet we can recommend Rust-Oleum 3369/3380 CombiPrimer Anti-Corrosion followed by Rust-Oleum CombiColor Original. This is available in many RAL, NCS or BS colours in a satin or gloss finish. | |
