        Why that blue? (not my cup of tea I guess)

        By the way: the Krylon (I think is the brand) ALMOND color is a near exact match for the limestone for the roof and wheels...

          Because I knew it would irritate you.
          At least I didnt paint the galvi
          Hate that
          Once I got started I couldnt stop
          It's not that bad.

            Oh, if you painted the galvi I would have been over there to beat you with the can caps!!! (plus it takes fewer cans if you don't paint every square inch)

            Check out the Almond paint- it really is an amazingly close match...

            You off today?

              You can paint the galv. with cold galv. paint in a rattle can, not the nice hot dipped big nickel size flakes when your done, but pretty close to the same color. works for me. cheers,

                FYI: Rustoleum now makes what they call "Bright Galvanizing" compound. It looks more like hot-dip than their older stuff does.
