I've noticed that the paint appears in several different shades in different places, either due to different batches, or discolouration. Because of this, I found a close match in an automotive enamel, and used it on the table legs, which were badly scratched up. It is a bit darker, but looks ok. I haven't tackled the flaking stove paint yet, mainly because I would lose the painted lettering - does anyone know if decals can be had for these? I'd guess that even if you found original matching paint, it probably wouldn't match anymore due to fading... -- Shawn Wright http://Zuiko.sls.bc.ca/swright ~This message sent by Pegasus Mail, the safe E-Mail alternative~ "Friends don't let friends use Outlook"
