Hello from Germany,
after only reading the forum in 2019, i finished a new project.
I found this Silver C, which is an U.S.-model. This was the first time i tried sandblasting for the firebox and the side panels. A guy did that for €50.-, and i had no idea if it was a good price. But it came out very clean, the metal looks nearly white. The heat resistant color is a german brand which i used in grey on my Platinum (2018).
After celeaning and sanding the frame i paintet it two times with regular black, added new burners, ignitor and 1,5mm flav bars and a nearly new cast iron grate.
Finally there is a 30mbar valve, which is different to the normal german models, they work with 50mbar.
Enjoy the pictures.
