Next time you moan about having to repaint your lounge room, spare a thought for the painters who take a brush to Sydney's Harbour Bridge. The coasthanger is
currently undergoing a major makeover, stripped back to bare metal for the first time in its history. And workers are enlisting the help of some high tech robots.
