Forgot to add. 
Must be available locally as Royal Mail have 
got a bit strange (health and safety ?) about sending any
liquids through the mail system even if packed well.

  Can anyone recommend a good quality paint and maybe a primer/undercoat
  that is good for aluminium.
  It must be 'marine grade' as the location here is VERY close to the sea and
  during winter most external metalwork can have a coating of damp salt on
  it (until it rains). For instance, this morning cleaned all the house windows
  and this evening there is already salt spray on them, and it is only blowing at
  40MPH.

  I am presently giving my rotators a good overhaul. Both (Pro-Sis-Tels) are in
  a very poor state with the original paintwork coming off in strips. Going to get
  the rotators peen blasted back to good metal and then want to give them a good
  coating of paint that will last for a few years.
