You are generally better with a bottle of touch up paint from the manufacturer of the rad. What make are they?

Stelrad elite K2 ray, just standard one

Get about 10% damage on henrads. Normally it's the forks. Send back if main pnl. If covers get new ones delivered next day foc.

Thats very high. Normal damage rate on rads should be ~1%. Anything over 2% across a decent statistical sample, and there is a real problem.

These ones were all ok, they were damaged on site, thanks again for the paint Ray

Even if you use the stuff from the manu you can still see where it was touched up.
Contra the brickies , painters joiners or whoever marked them and swap them.

I'm working on the cards running a smallish job, storage space is at a premium, the rads were moved several times, out of 25, 2 have been damaged, don't know who by, can't prove it. I have done all I can to store them safely, obviously I can't watch them 24/7, i think I shall just have to reveal the good news to the boss. Obviously he won't be happy but there's only so much I can do. Cheers Tamz. One is only a very light scratch on the bottom, can maybe get away with touching that 1 up, the other is a bit worse, and is near the top.
This may have to be changed.

Normally how F&P deliver and off load pallets. Then into a sprinter off at our yard and on another van . Apparently we are very bad for returning rads! I have damaged the odd one and sent it back as damaged in transit. Grilles are the worst though, slight bump and the ends are ruined , no protection like on other mfr. jur cardboard . The rads are stacked too high aswell. Tangs on back flattened a lot !
