Well if you use the correct paint, I assume it will last until you scratch it.

the silverback sans females looses his girth and hue, I would say you need an entire troupe but thats monkeys not apes....a wrath of apes? an angle of apes? a confection? I'm a mandrill guy myself, blue animals rock etc.

A man with 18 monkeys on the landing need not acknowledge the existance of anything in blue shades.All are lunatics, but he who can analyze his delusion is called a philosopher.

btw had a slight embarrasing moment earlier. apparently tis a mature female leopard ( ) which is, according to the lord, quite a rariety. Must brush up on my cat stripes

I had to buy some for my lads exhaust on his scooter. I kept sanding it and painting it but had to keep doing about 3 times in the year as the rust kept coming through. That was the matt black stuff from Halfords though.
It seemed to last quite well on the unrusty bits however.
