Re-painting a lathe?
Does anyone have a view on type of paint to redo a lathe. I intend to do both of mine but not at the same time. I have 5 years experience with spray work on guitars and would like to have a good finish so spraying is my 1st choice. With the guitar work it was all nitrocellulose which was very user friendly and trouble free but won't use that in this case.
Was thinking 2 part but then maybe not.
Can't avoid considering a good quality 1 part epoxy enamel, although easy, isn't very durable. I've used 2 part Dulux structural paints in the past but...In a confined workshop?
