if you google your question, you'll find a BBC website article on it that is fascinating.

A couple of quotes:

"The door is made of bomb-proof metal with high-quality gloss paint as a coating."

"Somebody comes down from Downing St, an official Number 10 cleaner, to polish the brass every couple of weeks. They don't like us touching it."

I'd imagine it has something to do with the procession of slimy occupants.

I would imagine something like yacht varnish over base black ....

That's what I would use on an exterior door .....

If I wanted to same finish indoor I'd probably use piano paint .....

Polyester coatings on pianos are a right pain to apply. Takes about 3 days to do a proper job on a grand.

Politicians are oily fuckers and every time one brushes against the door it gets recoated.

The door is bomb proof and made of steel with a healthy application of black gloss. The bomb proof effectiveness was explained and demonstrated after an Ira mortar attack in the 80's. It's a top notch door
