Great job @SteveZ, the performer looks as good as new.

Did you use Pam on the lid?

The frame turned out great. Is that powder or did you paint it?

@Neil_VT00 I had another Red (P) Lid. The Fade on the lid that came with the kettle seems the be irreversible.

Wow.  One hell of a job.  You're making me considering tearing mine down to clean it get it looking like yours.  Did you repaint the frame or did it just clean up that good?  If you repainted, what did you use?

Wow!  Great job Steve.  It is clear how much care and work you put into that restore - the results show.

I got some white end plugs you mentioned to try out and noticed the rack or the shelving has 3 tabs on each side vs 2 on yours. Is mine newer version to support more weight ???  MIne is 1991 N-code.  I did not noticed this before.

Mines a P code which makes it 1993. I only have 2 on my 93 and my 99.
