Colored Kettles
« on: September 17, 2016, 09:20:34 AM »
May sound like a stupid question.. but my Red 1999 code EE is darker in the center
Than the top and bottom , I have not fired it up yet,
But is this a result of years of heat or is ''tis the original
Paint sneam?

No issues. It's called the "Fade".

Obviously looking for a Glen Blue (who isn’t?😂).

Looking for anything Happy Cooker, including any re-branded as Montgomery Ward.  I’ve amassed a nice collection, but I’m missing a few still.  Let me know if you can help a fella out🤞

It's a defect, send it to me for disposal. Post some pics so we can see the nice fade!

Sneam, Skeam, or Scheme …. whatever it is called … Yes, most of the redheads from the '90s have this.  They were made this way, not from heat.

My 1995 (EO) has a very nice fade.

@Lemans -I have a twin to your  double E MT that I bought new in 99. That is exactly the way they were produced. I have heard them referred to as red fade or red mist. Here she is fired up with the angry red color change you will see when you get her hot.
