Good luck, I like the patina the way it is now, great find! |
Thank you! Permalac looks like just the right stuff!
I'm worried about surface prep. I don't want to ruin the patina. Should I use TCE? Acetone? Thinner? My instinct says to degrease it and clean it with alcohol but I could be way off the mark.
