Default paint

Jordan, If you look at the battery box in the store room, the inside is clearly still in this gloss black finish, the guy painting is only painting the inside, also looking at shauns Ronson carrier (picture attached) there are remains of this paint. The rear plate the box attaches to was also painted as the remains can be seen in the picture.

I have used chlorinated rubber paint at work at it look just the same, I am guessing with the use of enclosed battery cells on charge you would not want a spark from the hydrogen gas and to reduce the risk of shorting out the battey you whould benefit from insulating the battery enclosure.
