I repainted mine last year and used this from AZ. Looks pretty good too.

Diggin thru some old rattle cans of paint that I had, I came across one that is very close to orig.

It must be old because the only name says " color place". It has a Number on it, which is

20012  & is called silver aluminum. It is a slight bit shinier than orig, but looks real nice.

I had picked up 2 grills, one was good and other for parts. After using what I needed I have

enough stainless for another grill , which I will probably sell. They will need some work.

Thanks for all info
