MF, your Gold base turned out fantastic. I can't complain about the finish quality of the stuff I got from the cans. And I'll certainly put my brush technique down as "needs more practise". But geeze, this has been an exercise in frustration.
I'm thinking I may just have to concede that this battle has been lost. I have no real work area and setting everything up to protect the surrounds takes longer than the action of painting. I can't use solvents in the storeroom as it is connected, bizarrely, to the kitchen via the stove extractor fan. If I use anything too volatile it ends up stinking the house out.
It seems I also bought the last can of Hammered Silver around me until they can get stock in. So I'm snookered there.
I shan't give up on the mower, but the painting process may have beaten me. I promised last time I would outsource my painting. Except that job turned out very well!
I'll see how I feel tomorrow.
I don't collect mowers. I just require Multiple Mowing Solutions™.
