I love the red weber badge! How did you do that? A fine brush with a steady hand?

Sprayed the badge with red paint. While still wet wipe off raised areas with paper towel dampened with mineral spirits. Recoat and wipe again. Clear coat with clear paint. Before I started I wet sanded the raised areas with 400 grit sandpaper.

Well done! It looks fantastic! What was your trick for the ss table?

You should start a Weber/SSP restore business. A few guys around here could get into that. Amazing work.

Trick for the table? Back to the 400 grit sandpaper and wet sanding with the grain. Some of the deeper scratches are still there.

Bull! Like most of us, you won't be able to help yourself. Weber kettles are just too damn cool.
