Black is good. Black with neon racing stripes is better. Time to check out the auto parts store.
ReplyDeleteooh has anyone succeeded in backlighting the logo?
ReplyDeleteThe HH is a fine machine. Not so easy to paint for the average type-rehabber, though. The sides of the body are part of the frame. I ended up taping mine up with tons of tape and newspaper to get mine painted.
ReplyDeleteThen I donated the doggone thing. Now looking for another HH...
I've not yet tried painting. this one I just wanted to hide the mottling, whatever that was, on the lid so I stained it with india ink to make a two-tone look. It does seem to be a good machine.
ReplyDeletePretty clever, using India ink. There's quite a lot of colors available in drawing inks. I wonder if you could sponge these on to a crinkle-paint machine to dress it up? Hmmm...
