What kind of paint do you use on metal radiators and pipes?

I don't want it cracking/flaking with the heating and cooling.

Many Thanks.

You can get a brand of paint called Hammeright which makes paint especially for radiators etc.

Thanks JGG.
Just had a quick google, sells in a lot of places. It's reasonably priced too.

Your Welcome :)

Yeah it isn't too pricey and they do cracking metallic colours aswell (metallic black is my favourite for sanded and sealed wood shelves).

Dont forget to turn the rads off whilst the paint dries. Hammerite has to cure from the outside in.
