My favorite rehab to date

[Eric-NH]

I'm just really digging the colors. Think I'll do silver bottoms on bright lids, pops really well. And the ceramic cerakote REALLY makes the frame look better than new. Totally dry and non sticky or greasy

 

[Bruce]

That is pretty cool. Is it high temp rated? How do you apply it? How much did it cost for you to do that Q?

 

[LMichaels]

What is that color called?

 

[Paul Warner]

Interested as i have just bought exact same barely used inc cart/table. That orange looks cool

 

[Eric-NH]

Thanks guys! This is the paint I used.

I get the semi gloss look by applying 2 coats of their satin clear after usually 3 light coats of the color. I don't completely strip it down, but I do thoroughly degrease it and then soda blast it to give it a nice finish to adhere to. I used oven cleaner to get most of it cleaned up, then a cup brush on a drill and soda blasting to get it real clean. I used less than a can of paint and clear, so I'm guessing maybe $25 all in including the oven cleaner, paint, and media. I used less than one of the cerakote trim wipes on the frame after washing it with dawn powerwash and wiping with alcohol. I think it looks better than new at this point. Used dirty ones seem to be selling for 60-100 in my area now, I'm going to ask $125 and see what happens

OK, I thought you were using that Cerokote stuff.

 

[Eric-NH]

This shows how much of a difference the cerakote makes. Like I said, completely dry.

Wow...that stuff looks incredible...so does your Q!

 

[Bruce]

Doesn't look like that stuff is heat rated though.

How hot do you expect the plastics to get? I've used it on my snowmobile plastics with great results. Used it on plastics under hood on my cars, holds up

 

[Bruce]

OK, I thought that was the stuff you used on the lid and cook box on the Q.

This looks great, will try this for sure on the below which i recently picked up for $25. Also, the orange has inspired me but thinking yellow.
