Title: Exterior paint
Post by: Chris on May 06, 2007, 11:41:57 am

I know that everyone here pretty much likes the hammertone paint for the shelves and interior of the machines. I was wondering what you have been using for the exterior. I'm asking because the hammertone has a textured look to it from the samples I have seen. So if someone could let me know what has been working good for the exterior of the machine. Thanks

I use acrylic enamel but that is just what I have always sprayed, base coat clear coat is probably better with a great shine..
