Aladdin bowl fire refurbished. After changing all the seals and giving the heater a good test I decided to restore the paint. It was pretty good really, but I replaced the filler cap with a new brass one I had as a spare for other lamps, which fitted. I quite liked the brass but did not want to strip the paint from the pump so I thought I would spray the whole lamp and filler cap to return the lamp to what I think is pretty accurate. I now think the lamp looks original now. I took the lamp to a local automotive paint supplier who has been trading locally from the 1960's. He mixed a spray can as near a match as original. This was not much more expensive than some of the off the shelf similar paints. Hope you like the finished results.
Firexit cheers mate. Yes it was an enjoyable makeover. I was lucky in finding a good one that helped the final result.
Going great guns! The chromework is in great condition and shurely one (or three) for the action gallery???
