It could be but I was trying to get through to the blue to see if I could leave it that way for a little while dispensing budweiser in the shop. I thought the white would just be spray paint and would come off easy but it is really thick.

Well since this machien has some rust I decided to go to home depot and buy some can primer to help slow the rust a little untill I decide to restore the machine.  While I was there I decided why spray primer when I can just buy blue and possibly make it look a little better than off white. I found a good color blue made by rustoleum and taped everything off and started spraying. It really looks rather good. Not show quality or anywhere close to something I would put in my liveing room but it does look better than off white. I then used my DA sander and lightly sanded through the blue to the white below. The pics do look a little better than in person but it is good enough to fill with beer.

Looks like a totally different machine, a good cheap way to enjoy it until a restoration can be done. Did you get it cooling?
