    Lidl has cans of metal protective paint. Would this spray paint be OK to use on a radiator

    If its the same as I bought a few years back then yes it bloody brilliant stuff. Do you have a link so I can see if its the same?

    This is it. Have sprayed the radiator with and it's looking good. Would need to keep doors open for a while after spraying because there is quite a strong smell from it but disappears after a while

    Similar but can't be 10% sure, definitely very strong smelling. If it says its an alkathane paint then thats it. I picked it out of a Lidl reduced bin and used it on surface rust on parts of a galvanised trailer back. That was a couple of years ago and its still looking good. It stuck well to the galvanised and covered the rust which hasn't shown through.

    Wake me up when it's all over.

    I used it on a radiator, 4 coats and the radiator looks as good as new. Very strong smelling in the beginning but it goes away in about an hour. Thank you for replying to my query
