Darren,
I hope you aren't going to be painting your floor with the same paint.
I can imagine you walking round and bumping into all the camouflaged machinery. :lol:

Very good John, very good.... :clap:
it'd be like one of those modern white rooms........ :doh:
Talking of which, it almost got pained white, the paint is here.....I never was very good a making decisions....I still might yet....... :scratch:
Stew, the nicest thing about all this is just how little effort it all takes. The old way was such a pain most tools just got a cover up inc chips, chunks, rust an' all.
Add the fact that the whole process inc paint will cost about £10 or less, then it's a no brainer....
I painted my lathe with floor paint, comes in quite a few colours, it's tough (just think of the punishment it gets on the floor) It paints easily. I just brush it on and then run a small roller over it to give a nice finish. Lastly you don't need a hundred brushes or rollers as they keep/wash in white spirit till next time they are needed.
Shall I paint it white........ :bang:
