  • I think I read somewhere that they don’t use regular gloss paint on number 10. Loads of undercoats (as you recommend), then several coats of some kind of buffable black lacquer, with a clear polyurethane top coat. Probably sprayed, as you say. As expensive as the wallpaper no doubt.

  • Number 10 has a blast-proof steel door. Painting it is probably a bit different from a wooden one.

    They have two and swap them over very couple of years. Presumably the spare goes to a workshop somewhere for a sandblast and respray.
