Hello everyone, I apologize in advance for my English but wanted to share this with you. Something special for Dutch standards. (for you guys too?)

Found on an online Dutch market place. Talked to the old owner and after 1 or 2 uses it turned out to have been put in the attic in the 1980s.
It is an H code from 1986.

The next photo was in the ad and I just knew this could be something special

The beautiful brown arrived home after purchase in really new condition, so I took it apart, polished it completely and figured out how to treat each material such as the handles, legs, etc.

The handles a few times in the colorless oil that is intended for lacquered furniture. It was amazing how the color and finish just came to life.

See the end result here:

I'm very happy!
What do you think? Just use it or not?

Thanks for watching
 
That is beautiful! Very nice job shining that old brownie up! If it was mine, I'd use it......I might baby it a bit, but I would definitely use it!

Wow! I have one of the same vintage and never got it close to looking that good. Nice work. I’d go daily cooker that grill is too sweet to just sit idle.
 
Oh wow that is beautiful! I'm jealous. I restored a C code 22" brownie, but it doesn't look anywhere near that pretty.
I think even that first picture looks pretty special! (y)
 
Thank you all for the overwhelming response!
Most people here would agree to watch him cook. I am thinking of purchasing a slow n sear basket for 18 inches. I am afraid that the outside of the kettle is getting too hot.


Unfortunately not available in the Netherlands. Anyone have any suggestions for another solution for protecting the paint coat?
