I want to restore my cooler but don't know where to get the paint (red and white), also the chrome corners are rusting is there a way to clean if not is there somewhere I can buy new parts. Thanks

jlevangie,
Hello and welcome to the board! Use the "search" function and you should find what you need. Post a picture and will be able to tell if the chrome can be polished or will need to be replated.

Welcome John,
Paint codes have been discussed here before, Colamachines.com, one of the advertisers here have a good listing here. Take the codes listed to a paint shop and they will get you rolling.  

For parts, try any of the vendors on the links above. I would think Steve at Funtronics 301-371-5246)  could set you up, or provide information to shops that get what you need.

I seem to recall running across a site that restores/repairs coolers, I'll check when I get home.

thanks for the info on the paint, it was helpful. Tried funtronics and they were unable to help. My cooler is one of those portable 12 pack size coolers.

i'm still looking for help finding parts for my cooler...4 chrome corners??? PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN

Is it one of those they call "Airline Coolers"?

no it's smaller with tray inside, handle comes up to lock the lid on. Trying to put a picture on, just need to figure out how
