    Good job, but I'd rather spend the time building a cover for that thing. Most of the newer radiators here in the USA are just flimsy fin tubes that need covers to protect them. The covers are usually fairly ugly metal things, but you can always build them from some kind combination of wood, tile, or a nicer looking metal grate. With covers, they are a little easier to keep clean, safer, and because the covers don't heat up as much, they hold paint or varnish better.

    I bought a sanding attachment for the drill.
    Basically it was 50 or so small pieces of sandpaper in a circle, once these were spinning the paint came straight off. £3.50

    Literally just watched this as I need to do a few of my radiators.
    I'll certainly have a go.
    After priming.
    What paint do you personally recommend to use after?
    Much appreciated. X

    Wish my radiator was this easy. I've had to use a paint stripper but it's left a lot of sticky residue I'm now stuck trying to get off. Many layers of paint don't help either

    • @PaintingandDecorating

      Not nice hope you get the finish you're after. White Spirit may help to get the sticky residue off.

    • @PaintingandDecorating

      Thanks, paint stripper will be good, but it all depends on how much is damaged.

    why you do not use a metal hard brush with a drill to remove the all paint in much shorter time and hassle free?!

    I had a customer recently moaning about how long it takes too sand down prep and gloss a radiator. Frustrating to say the least

    • @PaintingandDecorating
      @PaintingandDecorating  6 лет назад +2

      Yes can believe it, I think people like to have a decorator in, but they want you out because they don't like the upset. Some rooms are worse than others. Rooms that never get used much you seem to be left alone. But if it's a room that is used frequently they want you finished yesterday. Which is understandable really.

    • @essanjay8604

      Can't you just tell them how long it will take (overestimated) from the get go then they have no room to complain.

    I’m just in the process of repainting a radiator and I found you video very useful. The front of the radiator is flat, the fins are on the back. The old paint had flaked very badly. I removed the flakey stuff using a scraper and sandpaper. However there are now hairline cracks all over the place, without loose paint next to them. How do I deal with these hairline cracks please?

    • @PaintingandDecorating
      @PaintingandDecorating  6 лет назад

      Charles Arnold you will have to sand them down best you can or strip the whole radiator.

      @charlesarnold4963 6 лет назад

      Painting and Decorating many thanks for your extremely rapid reply. Stripping the radiator at this time of year when the weather is so cold is not really an option so I will sand and paint and sand and paint and see what happens!

      Something that can be lightly sanded 2 part wood filler would work, use a metal primer on bare metal first

    My question is “ is it worth time and effort, particularly as you don’t know what the condition of the radiator is internally.
    Could well be rusted to hell if an inhibitor has not been present!!
