Paint choices

William Easby All Messages By This Member #117330 Just looking for paint choices for an Atlas 618, what worked and what didn’t. Spraying over brushing. Durability. Any help would be great. Thanks
Jim F All Messages By This Member #117331 开云体育 I went with Rustoleum Light Machine Grey spray paint. I stripped my Craftsman down to bare metal, then two coats of Rustoleum grey primer and two coats of Light Machine Grey.? Follow the can directions, then let the second finish coat hardened for two weeks before assembly.? toggle quoted message Show quoted text On Apr 20, 2025, at 5:10?AM, William Easby via groups.io <ballucanb7@...> wrote: ?
