Coloured coating (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

paint

'coloured coating' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for paint that I've seen before include "Artistic medium" , "Artist's material" , "Surface coating or decoration" , "Vividly describe; cosmetic (joc.)" , "Catch a likeness" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
