Thanks Mowerfreak, these are the paints I used. Anything rusty around the engine I cleaned up and sprayed with the clear, while the chassis and handlebars I sprayed with the silver. Be mindful though, it doesn't like fuel being spilled onto it. I painted the top strip of the handlebars with Satin Black paint.

Cheers Speedy. I'll doublecheck the magnet for any grime.

That's interesting Norm, considering I've been told the mower is a F/C model most likely made in 1980/81. It's a bit confusing lol
