## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: Really good paint - I bought this for my bird bath that started to rust. When I bought the bath it said it didn’t rust as it was copper but it was a lie and after a few months it started to rust. I didn’t want to throw it away as it’s still new so I decided to clean it and get anti rust paint. This one is very good, I like the colour too especially with the water. I had to give it two coats of paint and it drys quickly, especially in this heat. Very good quality, easy to apply and coverage is very good. Small tin but it has a lot, you don’t need to use much.
Review: Paint for renewed brake callipers - Painted car callipers when changing the discs/pads. It restores the original silver-ish look in one coat. Just do not over-do, a thin coat is enough. It looks like the original galvanic coating. Some people report success with different colours, but I wanted just a fresh original look. Do not worry about temperatures, on a road car the calipers never heat above 100C, while a thin layer of this paint is very resilient to higher temperatures due to the aluminium powder. Very small amout is used, about 10% of the tin. The paint dries fast, as it was sunshine and wind yesterday. The smell is fine, much better than spray paints, but I would use it outside only to avoid headache.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can it be used on a radiator**
A: I would not use it on something that gets hot because of the fumes that you might get from it , but you can get paint that is meant to be used on radiators which will not give off fumes

**Q: Would this be suitable for a car tow bar and backplate? Anyone used it for this.**
A: Yes this would be fine to use as my partner used it on his tow bar and it worked brilliantly. Hope this helps.

**Q: Can it be used on a gas fire frame**
A: I wouldn't use this product you need to speak to a paint specialist especially if the frame gets hot

**Q: Can it be used on heaters**
A: No!!! I once used it accidentally on a wood burner and the fumes when it got hot were terrible!
