    Krylon gloss vintage gray, if you were to do the whole vac it would prob be ok. No primer with this one too. It’s hard matching 60 year old paint, I’d have to take the vac apart and get at where it’s been cover from light. Terry owes me a switch, but the vac is perfect now, I’m happy.

    I finished up the floor brush, I swapped out the better brush strips too, thanks for the idea, it came out nice, prob looks like It did new. I think the teal brush replaced the OG tan one, I remember something breaking. Now I have a nice all teal brush if someone needs one. Even has a teal...

    The Krylon gray paint matches pretty good for the flip brush.

    The way the bumper hang off on the door, you’d think most would be long gone.

    Jon, you gave me an idea, so I tried to slide out 5he brushes, a little here and there, and they popped rite out. I straightened up the grooves where they staked the brushes a5 the factory. Now I can wire wheel the steel pc and sand with the brushes out of the way. The brushes say fuller...

    I got 2 for 6 on Amazon, if all the parts are rite, I didn’t even have to drive around. And it was all free ship. I’d buy that bag from the earlier post if you want to sell.

    I’m going to attempt to paint the metal part on the brush side, it’ll be kinda hard not getting paint on the bristles, looks like the brushes are crimped in. Here’s 3 tans I had, I did a spray out to see what matches best, it’s an extra part so if it turns out bad, no biggie. The paint on...

    Johnny B thanks, I ordered that one. Now I just need the 2 hangar clips, I though there was 3, but the lower on mine, the hook part is broke off. So I need both, strange is I see the lower on line but not both. I don’t want them in black. Almond is what was on it.

    I’m going to paint the metal part of the extra floor floor brush I bought on eBay tan, and use the tan rubber from it. The teal just looks wrong on this vac. I have 2 paints, a tan and an almond. I’ll see what matches. I have a nice teal floorbrush plastic pc if someone needs one in the teal.
