[SEL] MAYTAG Paint

[Rex Hinz]

Dave;

   I got my wrinkle paint from Farm & Fleet , don't know if  they have 
stores in Pa. but I think most auto parts carry it for restoring valve 
covers on some older automobiles .
    Anyway I used Plasticoat , if you have an oven in which to heat up the 
project so the paint wrinkles your in luck if not a heat gun works well ,  I 
hung my parts on wire about chest level  and used the heat gun to preheat 
the castings then put a heavy coat of the paint on and dried the paint with 
the heat gun  it worked  great but a little more labor intensive , you will 
see the paint wrinkle right before your eyes ,a light coat of paint wont 
wrinkle so Practice with a sample piece first then move to the project , If 
your doing a Maytag try to keep the paint off the Axe handle , also if the 
handle of the heat gun gets too warm for your hands a cold Ole Mil with in 
reach should solve the problem.
