    What do you paint your frame and parts with?

    If you are only doing 1 grill this year use spray. I use the can and roll on the firebox liberally. I finish the firebox with a light single coat spray of hi heat semi gloss in the visible areas. I get good coverage and appearance at a reasonable cost. I have to watch my costs when repairing...
