Goldie hammered colors

[rjent]

I can't find what has been suggested on what hammered paints to use for the goldie/brownie machines. I have bought another 10ER (for the speed changer) and I want to restore it as soon as "Texas Booty" gets finished which will be very soon.

What, if any, hammered Krylon or Rust-oleum, paints has been determined to match the best in the hammered colors.

Thanks in advance!

You can choose a spot protected from the sun, inside, wher a cover laps over, etc and pick a Rustoleum Hammered color that is close and start adding the missing color in the form of another Rustoleum Hammered color, Rustoieum says any of their Hammered colors can be mixed together, pretty easy to get VERY close to the original color, be sure to thin for spraying with Xylol ONLY, NEVER use Mineral Spirits with Rustoleum paints.

I really don't want to have to mix paints. I have done a lot of that in years past, but these machines, to me, just don't require that. I love how your machine came out, but what out of the can aerosols were the closest to the "original" goldie colors... if any ?

Remember, this is a 10ER and never had this color scheme anyway, so anything goes .... My wife just wants this one to be a "goldie" .... I can buy the paint from the mothership, but it is three times the price ....

Unfortunately my recent experience with the mother ship paint was less than satisfactory , after 2 weeks drying, it chips and scratches down to the primer very easily. Wish I had used Rustoleum , much more durable. I hope my opinion doesn't get me kicked off of here.

The Admin reads all here, if he has not kicked me off yet, you are safe
Maybe since Admin does he will relate it to the MS

I think the MS looks at opinions like yours as feedback to improve their product. Besides, it is informative to the rest of us!

Just a thought, maybe a primer and paint that was not compatible with each other?

Hammered GOLD

Hammered COPPER

Thanks JPG, I was hoping you would chime in, I was looking at those two colors and was wondering.

I think it will look good on a 10ER ....

Is that Rust-oleum or Krylon?
