Default Manky manhole covers

Has anyone had good results painting cast iron manhole covers? I have two
outside the front door set in paving. Both are rust coloured and not very
pretty.

Yes, my f-in-law painted one years ago with nothing special and it stood the
test of time.
Hammerite should do the job well as long as it doesn't take a lot of
traffic.
