errrrrrrrr........., The paint finish on the No5 inquestion is cra........ er......, not good. But the genuine bead blast, phosphate, sunkorite, baked and oiled as practised by Brian is the Base Workshop standard to aim for.
Sorry for any confusion!

Interesting, is it a durable finish? It look like it is.
'So I take it this is not good'. - Given the variety of JC finishes, including things that look like house paint, I think you're plenty OK with this .... I suppose it depends on factors like perhaps you bought it for its 100% originality as an investment, or whether you wanted a nice shooter.

No not really. I bought this No5 some years back for a good price, knowing the finish was different to others I already owned. The feedback I received from this thread is what I was already thinking really, I just wanted to hear it from those more knowledgeable. I'm not at all upset, it is what it is.
Thanks to all for replying to my thread.
