  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

The firebird torch I have had a dark grey rubber coating on the main part of the body. It was flaking off in a few places so I decided to refinish it. I scraped off the rubber coating and cleaned with alcohol. I painted with Rustileum's Hammered Silver. I meant to take before pics and forgot, but here is the finished product. Came out pretty good. The hammered finish has some texture to it.

Looks great! I have a buddy that wants to try that with his lighter and cutter to match his '67 Firebird convertible he's restoring.
