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.
