Gray Posted January 8, 2024 Report Share Posted January 8, 2024 I want to give the old girl a bit of a makeover. Any recommendations on paint with good coverage in the same colour preferably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted January 8, 2024 Report Share Posted January 8, 2024 Looks fine as it is to me, but if you must, clean with a good solvent, hand paint with any good quality gloss paint, it's surprising what you can achieve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grahamparker Posted January 9, 2024 Report Share Posted January 9, 2024 Bit of T-cut and some spit and polish and your good to go mate. Will it work any better painted ?. Looks like it's had some real heavy use mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's certainly done some work Graham over the years, not so much now sadly, that's why I thought it deserved a spruce up. Owes me nothing. Most I've spent on it is a set of bags.

keithm Posted January 16, 2024 Report Share Posted January 16, 2024 There is an option to upgrade to the newer type of Naumkeg Jo as you well know, so there is an option, it’s just more than you were willing to spend! hibsjo(SCO) and MartyCoggs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
