Not impressed with the paint on my carp Porter - has anyone re-painted one if so what paint ? Like to keep the original colour just need touching up in places as it will rust.

If your going to just touch it up you might as well just spray the whole thing s it will only take half hour longer anyway
plus once you start it won't match as it would have faded

Sounds a bit like mine! Definitely over 20 years old...Although it's missing several screws, been welded up a few times and painted it with black hammerite in places. It now looks like it has broken up on re-entry but it still does the job 😂
Are you sure?
