I would also want the plastic pieces to be suspended off of the bottom, I worry that they might melt if in contact with the bottom of the pot.

Branden, It is a SS pot that was made for me by a gentleman that I once knew when I lived in Wisconsin (not Bruce). I told him that I needed a SS pot because I was in to brewing my own beer and needed a big pot for the boil. He made this for me, but it wasn't functional for my needs. 25 years...

If its plastic, holds water and is big enough, it should work. I just went to home depot and bought the biggest plastic storage bin that they had.

Branden, I buy citric acid in bulk anywhere I can find it, usually in the powder form because it dissolves easier. Doesn't need to be food grade, industrial bulk cleaning citric acid is fine. 1/4 cup acid to a gallon of water. The hard part was finding a container that would fit the frame...

I think that the problem was with the High Heat clear gloss spray that I put on the handle. I got some of that stickiness that you described. For some reason, it seems that it never really cured on the plastic handle? The side end caps which I dyed black were originally coated with the ceramic...

I p I put a coat of the ceramic clear coat, Cerakote, on the handle only this time. It gives it a nice gloss look which I am hoping can stand up to the heat and the cover. Not on the knobs or the switches though. On those I put a coat of 303 automotive protectant for the UV benefits.

Thanks Jason, I went overboard with the dye thing and thought that adding an accent color to the brackets would make the black rocker switches stand out even more.

So, it has been almost a month since I did the restoratation on my Silver C. I did the dye technique on the gray plastic end caps and handle and really like them being black. The end caps were treated with a ceramic clear coat product, Cerakote. No problems so far and they look great and have...

Yes, I was going to mention in my last post, that you will end up rendering these friction clips useless once you pry them off. I would recommend using the high heat gasket maker adhesive technique that others have described in this form for reattaching the emblem onto the lid. It’s much easier

I have used the razor scraper once I am done using it for cleaning the inside lid. Carefully wedge it under the clip to get it loose enough to the wedge something more substantial like a screw driver of old knife. Careful with the razor, they will break if you use too much force.

I think the Silvers were all just the 5 flavorizer bar models, not the deep fire box like the 1000's.

Any way to post or share a link to that manual?

I guess any paint thinner/ stripper would work?

Not as far, he was in NJ
