What is the best paint for an old machine restoration.
I live in California, so choices are very limited but I have had excellent long term results using Ellis Hy-Lux (solvent based) paints for machine restoration. Works best sprayed (cheap HVLP gun is fine). It can be wet-sanded, rubbed and buffed for that smooth & glossy, factory style finish.- Inflight
