This is kind of deceiving:
In-Store Only
This item is unavailable for purchase online. You can purchase it at Lowe's Of Forney, TX

Stopped by a couple more places and decided I'm going with a grey/silver hammered. Not buying a case of green seeing this machine doesn't look bad enough to need paint. Hopefully a good polish will do.

Is the silver closest to the original headstock color ?

Amazon sells the Verde Green in individual cans. Also by the 6-pack, at a better price.

If memory serves, my local Menard's stocks it as well.

We don't have Menards here, wish we did. I wonder how many cans to cover a bandsaw ? Three cans at Amazon with shipping would be the same as a six can case at Lowes.

Not that I have done a band saw, but two, three at the most.

And what is wrong with having some left over?;)

I already have a bunch of some left over from everything else I've ever done.
