Here is my 2025 grill that i will be restoring, Genesis 1


 
I reached out to a powdercoater guy in Duluth Minnesota, he will do my cookbox and lid sides with high heat powder for $250
It's a go👍
There was alot of posts being posted yesterday and maybe a few people didn't get to see my comment.
I saw the guy advertising on Marketplace.
He's even going to meet me half way from Eau Claire to Duluth, we decided on a tiny town of Gordon on the 17th.
 
If I can find a quart I’ll do some playing around with it. Looking at the data sheet, for the spray on finish it calls for 2.0-4.0 mils of wet build. Which can be a bit challenging to keep it from running. But I’m up for anything.

If a guy could get setup to do 6-10 boxes at a time it would be much more cost effective than spray paint.
 
Don't laugh, for some reason I'm picky about these wheels 🤔
The right one I had to glue it on, after you punch the white wall from the wheel, it won't go back into the holes, at least mine won't.1000008997.jpg

Welcome to the club. I get mocked every time I put painter’s tape on new #63050 wheels to keep them “new” for potential buyers. Now that they’re no longer available as new, I’ll probably be significantly less protective of such things going forward. I’m pretty sure you’d couldn’t give any more of a rat’s HooHaa about what others think about it than I do. Carry on the the good work!
 
Kettles. I’m still surprised a company that large didn’t just make them all the same size. In production that would be a significant cost savings, at least I would think.
 
They made kettle wheels long before their first gas grills and larger charcoal models. It wouldn’t have been a bad idea to put 8” wheels on all their kettles and give them a higher stance, but that would have taken away one of the distinctions of the higher priced and more profitable “Master Touch” kettles.
