The model is 396074 and serial number I think is DR0384979. I believe the part number I need is 80476. I have been in contact with Weber, asked for that part and how to order and was sent a link to pay for the regulator that fits on the bottle. It’s all done through a email chat facility and...

I am going to contact them as looking at the replacement regulators mine is different. I am not in the USA and last time I contacted them in the UK they didn’t seem to be too helpful. I want to do some research first and hopefully find the part number :)

I have a Q200 I think it’s 10 years plus old and the gas thermostat controller is stiff to turn at a lower temperature setting. It feels like I could break the controller off the gas pipe. Does it need some oil or silicone to get it moving freely? Many thanks

Thank you. I must check how the stand is doing as the legs had started to rust so I fitted some wooden broom handle to make the legs the right length again :)

I use the boiled linseed oil too. Cheap and easy and I already had it for the slate hearth :)

I am in the UK. well Guernsey and I used the VHT calliper paint with a primer. Here is the one I did for my work colleague Post in thread 'Q lid repaint' https://tvwbb.com/threads/q-lid-repaint.76471/post-857002

I did them both at the same time, mine first which has issues. I took mine back to bare metal and the majority of the other. They were both washed in soapy water, rinsed, left to dry and then I wiped them over with acetone. I then primed, sprayed and glossed mine and then did the other one...

My colleague has been using the Q I painted with the same engine enamel and his is fine. There must have been issues with the prep of my lid as mine has pitting. Here is my colleagues lid [/url]EBCC6435-5190-435A-9F76-2564DB79C038 by Liz Quentin, on Flickr[/IMG]

I will check with my colleague that received the other one I upcycled to see how his paint is doing , he collected it in the week and had it fired up on Friday.

I used this paint as the higher temperature paints in the UK I didn’t really like, nothing very fancy!! https://www.vhtpaint.com/high-heat/vht-engine-enamel It has been fine the only issue I seem to have is that I may have still had some liquid on the lid before I started painting as it has...

I am not sure if the tyres will hold the paint as it’s high temp. I might give it a go tomorrow:)

This is the Q200 that I have upcycled for a work colleague. I wiped boiled linseed oil to the plastic black trim on the cart and Q frame to bring the colour and shine back. 2DDD6F84-FF6D-48BE-9D63-EE5B438EC5D9 by Liz Quentin, on Flickr

Thank you. I am really pleased with how it has turned out. But I have now decided that the base needs a coat of black paint to smarten it up!!

I used a wire cup brush on my handheld drill but the old coating was flaking in places so it was quite easy. I then went through the sandpaper’s to make sure it had no scratch marks.

Here is the before, all ready for painting 9F83BBB2-DD04-40D2-B0AC-D35CA7585091 by Liz Quentin, on Flickr I made a stand to sit the lids on so I could spin them for painting AE30606B-30DB-40F3-94BE-B018E1140058 by Liz Quentin, on Flickr

Thanks all, this is Pontiac Blue. To me, I would describe it as baby blue. The cream colour on the cart is bugging me so I might have to see if I can use the engine enamel paint to match or find a matching blue for plastics……

I have cleaned, wire brushed the flaking finish and sanded all over the lids so I could paint with high temp engine enamel. I have done a Q200 for a work colleague and the Q220 for me. The lids did have a bit of pitting, but they look 100 times better than what they did! Here is mine all...

I was scrolling through the local Facebook selling page when I saw a Weber go anywhere gas bbq for £15. A few people had commented but I sent the lady a message and it was still available :) she lives a 5 minute drive away from me so I have just picked it up, it has been used once since 2017 all...

Thanks :) I have another two Q lids to paint once the colours have been decided!

Thanks Bruce. The colour chart came through the list today so decisions.. Bruce, how many cans of paint do you use to cover your lids ?
