We had some cast iron gutters replaced as part of an insurance claim (A deliver drivers van caught the edge and he drove off with them) - the insurance company have been really good, sent folk round who deal with specific parts of the job (slates replaced, lime mortared redone and gutter). The final bit was for it to be painted, came back from a weekend away and it’s been done, looks good and he even left the tin on my request so I could do another gutter.
However, the paint is Dulux Trade Eggshell mixed to a RAL of our choice but the tin says internal metal paint.
Is that likely to last or will it come off and my house fall down?
As it’s an insurance job I feel I want it done to the best it can be. I have no idea about internal vs external metal paints… paging @Airhead
