Toughest paint

[jspbtown]

Looking for some insight from a variety of people with experience.

I am going to paint a large piece of exercise equipment. Just a basic white. Its currently painted but has some scratches.

What is the toughest paint out there? I am capable of using a spray gun. I don't need depth or even a lot of shine. I just need it to be hard as nails.

I would suggest a 2 part epoxy system or ideally commercial aircraft exterior paint if you can get your hands on some. That stuff is as hard.

Has anyone tried farm implement paint from a tractor store? I have a garden cart I want to throw some paint on, thinking this might work ... not pretty, but durable.

I have used truck bed liner on my pans, very durable.

It needs to be a paint. The mechanism of the machine needs to work smoothly.

Google "Hammerite".
I used it on my engine tins. Looks & protects, almost like powder coat.
