Hello All!
I am still working on my VMC 27..  Through another amazing Coke collector here in Tampa, I have my cabinet at a professional painter in Orlando.  It is being completely worked over and painted with some high-end Dupont paint from Germany.  I have seen the finished product on another machine and it is unbelievable!  I will post some pics as soon as I get the cabinet back...  Thanks for all the help.. I will need more, I am sure!

Most paint lines are originally from Europe or Germany . Sikkens, Glasurit , DuPont etc. But sold all over the US .
