    Hi

    It’s clearly been there for a while but I’ve only recently noticed rust across the length of the bottom of a radiator. Anyone have any observations or comments? Thank you.

    Is this a bathroom rad? Rad too close to the toilet or basin can get splashed & eventually rust on the outside.

    If it's rusted right through then you'd see a leak. A constant drip of water

    It is near the toilet. We tend to keep the towel on the rad a lot so there’s lot of splashes on the rad. Thanks for that. Much obliged.

    I can be but even flushing the toilet with the lid up will splash the rad.
