Day 1252 Panel bearer?

14th January 2021

I have never worked on an enamel worktop before, but today we had one delivered to restore for a customer.

She picked it up at a junk shop, the original enamel had been painted over, but she wants every thing repainted.

I spent a couple of hours removing the old paint. I managed to strip all around the perimeter and uncovered the reason it was repainted. There was quite a bit of damage where the front edge had some impact that deformed part of the front edge.

The plan is to repair the missing enamel with car body filler and repaint the whole top with appliance epoxy paint, that should give a new smooth surface that should look good, well that is the plan, we shall see if it works out.
