Red Devil paint conditioner. Kind of neat, anyone know what era? I dragged it home and if it wasn't so cheap I would have buyers remorse... It's freaking heavy!

In the process of restoration is it going to shake the paint to be used on it?  :tounge:

Shaker, That's what I think. It actually has a dipstick, so it must take oil for some reason. Don't know if its 40's, 50's 60's or even later.

I don't dare plug it in yet, so it won't be part of the restoration! I don't know enough about it to plug it in, my new nickname will be lefty!

I saw that after making the post. That is red devil equipment, the machine says red devil tools. I'll be ok if it's 1990's, but it may be this company.

I think you are right Tim, but it's the same logo so the Red Devil Equipment Company might be an offshoot of some kind or they had the rights to the logo.

Regardless of the age, it would make a great martini shaker for the bar

If you are mixing a gallon of martinis at a time, you may have a problem  :tounge:

The newer logo is more devilish, while the older logo is a sweet smiling guy.
My how times change!  :biggrin:
