My next question is...what models and years did weber use the durawood? I have a handful of Genesis grills, none have the durawood, they are all real wood either stained or painted.

Recycled milk containers? Is this true or just an urban myth? Did this come from Weber?

I will post a dedicated thread detailing the process with pictures.

What exactly is durawood? Is it a plastic compound? I don't have any so I can't experiment.

Yes, I got my inspiration from Branden regarding tank scale rehab. You do have to remove the rivets, I use a multitool (oscillating blade) to cut off the rivet and then a nail set to punch it out. Once that is done, it is easy to disassemble the scale in to its component parts. All the parts...

Hi Rio If you go to the Rit Dyemore website, they will give you a color formula dye chart. I think the one that I used for the maroon accents on that grill was called "Red Dusk". It was a combination of three different Dyemore colors 1⁄2 Cups Racing Red 1⁄2 Cup Super Pink 1⁄4 Cup Apricot...

I have done the Rit dye for the control knobs. https://tvwbb.com/threads/2001-silver-c-rehab-how-to-or-how-not-to-dye-plastic-grill-parts.82222/post-909057 I think that I just followed the directions on the bottle. Make sure you use the Dyemore product which is designed for synthetic products...

Gary, If you are interested, I can tell you how to disassemble the tank scale so that you can really restore it to its original appearance.

Looks like a Genesis 1100 to me. Check out this thread in the Gas Grill forum: https://tvwbb.com/threads/what-year-is-the-weber.82660/post-913757 Did you check under the control panel for a serial number sticker?

I paid $579 plus tax for a Genesis 2000 1993 model year plus an extra $95 to add a side burner. Still have the brochure and the sales receipt.

I am looking for the internal spring and the small threaded spring attachment that go inside one of the old style tank scales. I am currently working on a Genesis 1000 rehab and realized that my tank scale is missing there two parts. A wing nut attaches on the other end of this piece on the...

I get inside and outside firebox and end caps blasted for a total of 30 bucks. Sometimes I’ll take more than one firebox, but not always, but I always specify that I am in no hurry and I think, like others have said, he just uses iit as a filler project.

I've always wanted to get one of those early Genesis grills from the eighties.

I think the biggest safety issue is not to use open flame source to heat the water/acetone mixture. I am not disagreeing with the idea that its addition may be negligible. But if safely done, I don't see the harm. I wonder who came up with the idea anyway? Someone needs to do a scientific...

Brian, I have used the dye for the knobs and rocker switches, the plastic handle of a Silver C and the plastic side ends of a Silver C, all with great success. I guess the acetone addition remains controversial. I used it, not knowing if it was necessary, but I was careful. I added it to the...

I’m not sure what kind of valve that is, I restored a 2001 silver C, didn’t have those kind of valves.

It is a panel the goes under the right control panel and hide the manifold from the front

Here is your grill in a brochure, seems you are also missing the sideburner.
