This is the last S330 that I finished. This is one that I donated to a family in need.
I want to do my next one similar to this one where I painted all of the gray black except this time I want to paint the table end caps and the control panel end caps black also. So that there is no gray. Just black and Stainless.

I think that would be pretty sharp. I think it was @Jon Tofte that did one similarly, and looked very nice.

@Jon Tofte was a work of art on his:
I finally finished my restoration of a Genesis 330 Special Edition that for a number of years was my daily driver. I hauled the hulk remnants of it all the way to Indiana from Florida.
I was greatly inspired by the post by @DanHoo where he showed how he "blackened out" a Genesis of similar vintage.

I decided to take it even further and try to make this 11-year-old grill look as much as possible like the new Genesis currently being sold.
So, starting with a grill that looked just like this:

Blacking out a Genesis E330
Not free, but I'll spend more in gas getting it than I pay for it. Never been a big fan of that color, but it looks like it's in decent shape.

Very nice Dan!
Both yours and Jon's look fantastic!
That black on black looks even better than I expected. I have a SS330 and a black 330. I've been more excited about the SS but maybe I'll do a black on black with no Gray. Thank you for sharing Dan!

The first blacked out one I saw was @Dave in KC
Since Weber refused to make a bright red Genesis for the last 20 years,
I made my own. Huge thanks to Jeff at Independence Porcelain Enamel
for the gorgeous tomato red lid work.
This will be my new daily cooker next year...

These were all done before I came to this site. Very cool to see. Also I did my 330 Restorations before I came here or even knew about this place.
I think I've been here for about 8-9 months

This Costco Weber Genesis ii S335 with back lit knobs was one of my best $ makers. I got it free because it was dirty lol but in perfect condition. I sold it for $620 immediately after listening.
Nice grill but I like my LX grills more.

I wish there was a better matching gray for the high heat paints.
I found an industrial paint that says it can withstand sustained temps of 200 degrees, because I want to do a cabinet grill and frames in something other than black or silver. Hoping after a few flips this spring and summer I’ll have better funds to do some experiments.

I'd have to ask him again what it was. I always like to use black when I repaint Webers

It might surprise you. I think those tests that determine max temps are done in an oven, where the ambient temp is the sustained temp. In the case of something like an end cap or a frame rail, the heat is being radiated into an ambient temp that is much lower which carries the heat away, like steam carries the heat away from boiling water. The actual temp that the coating fails may be higher than the sustained temp, especially if the manufacturer is conservative with their ratings.I wish there was a better matching gray for the high heat paints.

This is why I love this forum. That thought never once crossed my mind. I have quickly touched the frame close to the cookbox and it’s not skin searing hot. The end cap is a different story
One of these days I’ll have to remember to bring my surface temp reader home when I’m going to grill. Or remember to shoot the frame the next time I grill at work.It’s an Axalta (formerly DuPont) coating which is incredibly durable. I painted a swingset from one of our local elementary schools with its sister product, and 5 years later, it still looks like the day I painted it.
I reserve seeing one, XCT or XTC? Some sort of a ceramic coating in a spray can of I recall correctly.

Not sure if you have seen this thread.I wish there was a better matching gray for the high heat paints.

Nothing exact but there are some that are close.
