The Mrs has been bugging me to paint this old rocker we've had. I said sure with a stipulation, lol. Been meaning to take my old paint gun equipment out and run it through the paces and get my mixing cups and filters and all the goodies ready to paint the AC C loader tractor. Perfect practice, an old chair in the venerable Persian # 2. I think it will look nice on the patio or in the man cave. The old lady is going to wrap some cream colored rope or nylon around the handles to have it look like the old D series paint scheme. This is coat number 1. I’ll top it with 2 more and maybe a clear and call it a day. uploads/21188/08EEA90C-6CEC-4A41-AA2C-2E2917014F7E.jpeg" rel="nofollow - 08EEA90C-6CEC-4A41-AA2C-2E2917014F7E.jpeg uploads/21188/C89A303F-1584-4D0A-B98B-5A0B8CC279A0.jpeg" rel="nofollow - C89A303F-1584-4D0A-B98B-5A0B8CC279A0.jpeg |

Hey it’s all about compromise !!! Haha I’ll paint it sure, but I’m using my color, or sure you can pick the color and here is the Purdy brush or Iwata spray gun, you pick my darling. Starting to sound like Roger Welsch. |
