I've removed them.

Hammerite black is expensive, but could go on in one coat (or 2?)

Dulux weathershield is going on the woodwork, will this last as long
as hammerite on the gutters?


I used a marine epoxy paint system on gutters I put up nearly 30 years
ago. When I passed by the house recently, they still looked good.

possible,
googling hasnt found me any though,
marine chandlers seem to double the price of everything,
maybe from a car spares place?
30 year finish seems worth the extra expense.
the slates should last a hundred years!
