⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Coverage and Finish - Perfect for Metal Railings
Used this Hammerite Direct to Rust paint on some metal fence railings and it worked brilliantly. The smooth black finish looks clean and professional, and it went on easily with no need for a separate primer. Coverage was solid, even on older metal, and it dried to a tough, even coat. It’s ideal for outdoor jobs, weather-resistant and designed to last. I’ve used other metal paints before, but this one really stands out for ease of use and finish quality. No flaking, no fuss, just a reliable result. If you’re tackling gates, railings, or any exposed metalwork, this is a great choice. One tin went further than expected too, which was a bonus.

Good Quality High Temperature Paint
Great coverage. Done a small radiator and a couple of lengths of pipework with 2 coats, with about a third left. Tried hard to get a super smooth finish but there were some areas that cane out hammered. Not a problem and doesn't look bad, I was just aiming for a super smooth finish. Easy to wash off brushes with white spirit. Comes out quite runny but seems to thicken quite quickly, but jot to the point of being unusable. Consistently good outcome, so happy to keep buying and using

Great on radiators
Great paint and easy to use. Drips a little so need covers round. Great for radiators to make them look bright and new. Smells a little but not too bad and soon goes away. Nice bright colour and nice and thick so stays on well. Would recommend

Great Product and Arrived Quicker than Expected
Brough this for brighten up and rust prevention. Got the 750ml and just did the whole stair case. It was only one coat and although I may get another tin for giving certain areas a second coat, this is more down to the brushes used and workmanship. Dry time was pretty quick as well. A better painter with better brushes would no doubt finish the lot with one coat. 100% recommend. It's a lovey dark green and loves thick as it goes on. It does have a certain sparkle to it but it certainly makes an ugly item (such as courtyard fire stairs) look a hell of a lot better. Great value for money from this seller also

Good finish, reasonable price. Satin finish is superb.
Used this to paint an old radiator for a customer, they were so impressed I was asked to paint loads of the others in their house. I bought the satin finish, which in my opinion is the best by far. Applied with a soft brush then rolled over with a small 2" detail roller, which gave a very even smooth finish with no runs or drips if applied correctly. I'll be using this on all radiators from now on.

After my last review being not accepted, unknown reasons to me, i shall re-write the review again. I will say this is NOT a genuine Hammerite Product. After asking for the 'Hammered' paint i was sent the smooth one instead. As i was trying to finish the work i have beenn doing at home for last 2 months I decided to try this instead. I have used Hammerite products before so do know them. Upon pouring this paint out it was obvious this is not a genuine product, its so thin as if its been watered down. The label is just printed and stuck on. Plus check the pictures, it doesnt come out black when it dries but like a rustic brown. Avoid this people. I can't see why there would lbe positive reviews on this. Waste of Rs. 4,500.

Nice and heavy paint over shadows the rust and covers it entirely.
