What did you have done to the pipes mate? Vapour blast and plated?

Thanks everyone.

Dave, l got a spinny wire drill bit attachment thing from wilkos and went all over them using a drill as per second photo and then had them zinc coated as per third photo.

Matt, just black brush on hammerite - been on 3 years now so needs a quick clean and top up coat but still looks good considering.
