A traditional ultra high quality synthetic coach and machinery enamel colour the correct shade of blue grey for the American built Bridgeport series of milling machines which were painted in the distinctive blue grey shade. This is not the correct shade for the early British made machines manufactured by Adcock & Shipley which were more of a green grey.

Ideal for heavy duty vehicle finishing, tractors, stationary engines, narrow boats, workshop machinery and marine applications as well as for vehicle repair work and sign writing.

I have found this machinery paint to be excellent in covering my machines and rejuvenating them, returning them back to their original colour

Advantages: Easy brush on and work with great serf ice tensioning to take out the brush strokes and leave a quality surface finish that is easy to clean

Disadvantages: Too good and have taken to painting more of my machines as the unpainted ones looked shabby

A fantastic paint to work with. I used it to refurbish a ratty old bridgeport fkr work, and it came up looking brand new. The colour is perfect, and the paimt goes on smooth as silk with great coverage. You could probably paint 2 mills with 500ml. I bought more and I've started painting other items in the workshop to match, like my vice, and even workbench frames.

Advantages: Smooth finish even with brush, great coverage,

Disadvantages: None I can think of
