Hello everyone,
I just got this Philco 513 today and I am wondering how I should go about repainting the metal.
I would like to keep it as original as possible but that would be vary difficult with how much paint is chipped off.
When I get around to it what paint/paint colors should I use weather its spray paint or from a bucket.
To remake the gold rectangles I would probably make a cut out and mask the other areas so I don't paint the other parts.
I know there's a trick you can do to make the blurry yellowish blob design on the middles in the gold rectangles with spray paint but I would still like to keep most of the original paint on it still if possible.
Thanks.
