Thanks for the links. I've had a look through those books, but can't see
what I want. I just want one book which says "brass: use this, zinc: use
that", etc. I'm not really interested in why - I just want to know the
right paint to use.

Anyone else know of such a book?

Start calling manufacturers or visiting paint stores, Chris.

P.S: Let us know if you find such a book.
