As I said, no offence, although the Umbro Stand was probably paint on paint so you could maybe get away with slapping it on, & that was also the away end so it didn't matter so much. If the MBW is going to be painted for the first time it should at least be done right & not grin through all over the place.

We could make it a Shrimps-voices day out and all the hot air would dry it even faster

Well give or take an hour or so, that was just a rough estimate. I would of given a more precise quote if I'd of known you where going to be so persnickety about it.

Galvanised steel needs a couples of years to weather or it needs to painted with an acid, so the paint will key and not peel off after short amount of time.
