    This one has cleaned up a bit, it appears someone forgot to loose the cap before storage; paint is in pretty good shape so I’m being extra careful.

    Tips on cleaning the paint would be appreciated.

    Vaporizer needed spooned to correct an over fueling halo but all is well now.

    I’ve got a few replacement shades coming from John Moncrief; I’ve broken originals and my lamps like to run.

    Thank you
    John

    I clean my painted lamp tanks with
    automobile upholstery cleaner, followed by car polish.
