Crescent jointer restoration #2: Adding color
I have finished the body work, bondo, on the main casting and have applied the first coat of paint. It is Sherwin Williams direct to metal in graphite. It is an oil based industrial coating that should last a long time. It is the same paint and color that I used on the Oliver. The weather here is on the cool side and Im hoping it will dry enough to move indoors tonight, supposed to rain this weekend. I will be using a gloss black as an accent and possibly gold for the lettering. The jury is still out on that however.
