This customer purchased the item at our site.
The paint was (I feel) required to give the engine a well deserved `a bit of a lift` as for years `she` has remained, dirty, drab and neglected.
So, the only parts to be so treated are `her` cross-head castings, Eccentric straps and the cross cylinder oil reservoir set at the rear of this engine. The engine being a twin cylinder (dual) vertical steam engine of unknown lineage, however the vertical mainframe casting states this was a Ruston - Procter product, possibly of pre 1918 origin.

Advantages: I liked both applying the primer and top coat via brush, it applied easily and I always apply a thinned 60/40 primer first coat.
When applying the top coat one can (well I can) `feel` when one dragging the paint and not applying it.
Good paint and know doubt I will if requiring any further colours contact Paragon Enamel paint.

Disadvantages: The only disadvantage and I am yet to reach get there is when the tin is empty and all one requires are a couple more brushfuls !!!

Jul 29, 2020
This customer purchased the item at our site.
I use this as LNER Doncaster Green. The finish is mirror like. I tend to thin more than the recommended but the flow properties are very good.

Advantages: Heat resistant so fine for live steam locos. Dries to a very hard wearing surface.

Disadvantages: None.

This customer purchased the item at our site.
Excellent product!!
I sprayed the enamel onto my machine parts directly onto bare metal and the finish is superb. I had to finish off the inner side of some parts the following day and decided not to set up the spray gun and compressor for such a small amount. I used a brush and ended up with a spray quality finish. The gloss is amazing.

Advantages: Long wet edge giving great results even when brushing.

Disadvantages: None

Paul Mayes about  RAL 6016 Turquoise Green:
Apr 12, 2020
This customer purchased the item at our site.
This is second time I bought brushing enamel from Paragon Paints. Very happy with this more traditional paint. Used this green colour to renovate a garage door.
Covers really well, no brush strokes left, looks like it has been sprayed, but is a thicker finish. Paint delivered in 2 days despite Covid-19.
Would highly recommend.

Advantages: So much better than powder coat.

Disadvantages: None as far as I can see.

Quality product, far superior to the leading brand of hammer finishes.
