Rad is only a few years old.

Paint is flaking away at the top curved section and it looks like faint spots of rust where the rad is now bare.

I have bashed mine with the hoover a few times! You should be able to get some radiator paint to touch it up I think.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong :)
