RAL 7036 Platinum Grey

Platinum grey is a neutral-balance light/mid grey. Darker than a silver grey and contrasts well with either pale grey or graphite grey.

Advantages: It brushes well straight from the can. After a few hours I mix in a small amount of thinners to compensate for evaporation and keep it spreading well. 2 coats covers just about any base colour and becomes really tough after a few days.

Paragon enamels are my go-to paints for workshop machinery.

Disadvantages: Expect to apply 2-3 thinner coats rather than one thick one otherwise you’ll get runs and curtains.
