Before I built a paint booth, I used to brush paint the cast iron. That works pretty well if you are using a thick paint like Van Sickles. You have to really watch out for runs while you are doing it. The nice thing about brushing, is you can just stop any time you want and start again later. Once you mix a pot of paint you pretty much need to use it. I have seen tractors that have had the sheet metal painted with a brush. As long as you don't get right up on them they look okay. I would look around to see if you could find a body shop that could spray the sheet metal. If you do the prep and supply the paint it might not be too expensive. The only problem with doing that is most body shops want to do it all because their reputation is on the line. I would get on the phone and call around just to see what it would cost. If nothing else the body shop might be able to direct you to someone who does painting as a hobby. Never hurts to ask.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
