That kind of rust-red color you were talking about earlier. I don't know the exact name.

I think it's just Red Oxide Primer Windy.

Dan, I like your idea of the IH red, should last a little better than just primer but yet close to original color then.

Dan you are correct. Dad was a professional painter, and he used that a lot on ironwork, etc. Always had that around in the basement for projects.

If there’s any retired dentist on here I could sure use some help with this root canal.

It’s coming out,,,,slowly. Still some low spots that really need to be re-welded.
