What would be the best paint to use on my switch gear.. they have seen better days..
I would obviously want a paint that will be hard wearing..
Cheers

I've recently used this autoglym stuff on my switch gear housings, they came up really well, and when its wiped off it goes back to its original plastic finish.

If you want em gloss, then guess you could just get a clear plastic lacquer & spray them, but youd have to get all the back to black stuff off with some brake cleaner before you sprayed them.
