Paint Applications

The project I would like to submit is not run of the mill, veterans at Battling On a veteran based not for profit community group created over 600 scallop-shell poppies for Remembrance Day 2022. These handmade poppies were made from locally sourced Cornish scallop shells and were hand. In total the veterans made over 600 poppies, they also made silhouettes of soldiers and a war horse as part of a display for Remembrance Sunday.

Their hard work and determination earned them a spot-on BBC Spotlight evening news on Remembrance Day, and a prominent role on CountryFile aired on 13.11.22

The veterans also created wreaths with these scallop-shell poppies, and they were placed at Plymouth Hoe, as a centerpiece at the Cornish County Hall, and one was sent on the Routes of Remembrance train up to Paddington station.

We used Regal Paints one coat black enamel to freshen up the Gates and railings at Balmoral Castle for the Queen’s jubilee. Little did we know what was going to happen later on in the year, gates were never off the TV. We also used the same coating for new railings around Ballater memorial, again on the TV often after the Queens passing. A few photos attached of both scopes.

Regards,

Ian
