Even though that mower looked in very bad condition it still had paint on it in out of the way places , especially inside the wheels and the rear of the side plates and the ends of the cutting blades ,you can actually see the gold on the side plates in the pic , and I used the same colours .
I did a little research on this and the few I found were painted the same colours as I used .
Update , I just read grumpy's comment on timber colour , sorry but only gave it a light sanding and three coats of Estapol satin , the reason I did not rub it right back is it still has the stencilled Qualcast -- MADE IN AUSTRALIA on the handle and I wanted to save this , hence the weathered colour.
My green is not hammertone , that look is from the very badly rusted , pitted steel .
