Paul_C Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Can anybody give me some suggestions please as to the best type of red oxide to use on structures/buildings/rolling stock etc.... I'm painting some plate girders on a lift bridge and they ideally need a base coat before applying the main colour. Any hints and tips will be most welcomed. Thanks. Paul C.

Paul_C Posted June 5, 2020 Author Share Posted June 5, 2020 Thanks for that Mick, I'll get some over the weekend if their stores are now open. Paul C. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul_C Posted June 5, 2020 Author Share Posted June 5, 2020 Mick, I've just looked on their website and it comes up in three formats, all tinned. Do you know if they do it in a spray at all? I'll go over to Great Yarmouth in the morning and get what I need. Paul C. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what you're looking for... https://www.halfords.com/motoring/paints-and-body-repair/primer/halfords-primer-red-500ml-468827.html Gives a very pleasant bauxite Bear in mind that most Halfords are opening on a click and collect basis only Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
