That is the same color powdercoat that we use on a floor tile that my company manufactures. Its a perforated aluminum floor time for data centers. The hammerd look powder coating is the strongest you can find. Our tiles get a lot of abuse being that they are flooring panels and it holds up very well. It will last for forever in a machine.  Looks great on the shelf.

It looks like everything in your shop is now painted mint green Smiley

Looks great joey, it looks lighter when you showed the picture of the shelf vs the inside... but that could just be lighting.. very nice.. I have used similar stuff as well, my powder guy is experimenting with some new stuff on tubs for me now, it is powder coat, but it's super shiney and resembles zinc plating, but as tough as nails being it's powder.. I'll post some photos when done.
Also, to note.. the way you got those machines lined up with the matching clocks above them starts to resemble what the Wolf Collection must have looked like when it first started...  biggrin Just a few more to go Joey! Congrats. looks great!

Get a Dr. Pepper thermometer instead of the clock.

Great job Joey...
 I like the mint green... very 50's.. still working on the decals... would you want the Dr Pepper letters to match the front sign or the Dr Pepper with the off set P in it.... I'm working on all this stuff in spare time and I have John's I want to finish and a project Jay sent me... like to have them all done by Chicago show and I know you want these before then I'm sure seeing it's already painted...
No time time to Quikold hunt! Aghhhhhhh! wow
