LGB bridge repaint.

[Nodrog1826]

Toying with the idea of repainting my bridges, into corporate green as it were, one of those over winter or early for next year jobs, someone out there must have repainted one.

I am looking for advice not on the repainting, but it would be helpful, more on the initial prep to do so. Mine have been outside all year round for a while now.
So they will need a good clean before any repainting, so I am looking for pointers in the cleaning and initial priming area, what works and what to avoid, or if it is indeed worth doing.

The best advice from me is, if you use SOAP and 'green' scouring pad, or similar, ensure the soap is completely rinsed off, as the residue can cause paint to not adhere correctly.
