What paint did you use? Looks like an excellent match

Did the first cook on it last night. Lower heat (300) some local sausage...slight color change...Love It!

So it will still change color even though you painted over the original enamel? That's pretty cool. I figured the color change feature would be lost after painting.

Don't think the entire kettle was painted.

Almost bought that paint for my yellow.  I would love to see pictures of it after a few cooks to see how the paint is holding up!

Only the bare spots and rim rash was painted...the light spots you see are the painted spots...probably 90-95% original porcelain
