That's the Halfords paint I used (was done a few years ago now but the can looks the same) > No primer, just a rubdown and laid with the tips pointing upwards so no paint runs.........

The tips were black gloss (no corrosion) but the back plate (see attached link) had peeling paint and was not covered by the extended warranty :

OPC agreed to replace the pipes and confirmed it was a known issue. Also confirmed cosmetic things like this wouldn’t be covered by the extended warranty.

I have asked for the old tips back which they may do if Germany don’t want to see them
