Stripping and painting cabinet

[Charles W. Morehouse]

Hi Dana,
Been there done that.  Have an Apache/Mowhak and soon an HA-10.  Sand 
with wet paper and use a rotary wire brush on the rust or have it bead 
blasted.  A coat of Ospho will stop rust.
Automotive gray primer is good to use.  Sand with wet 400 grit.  Go to 
Benjamin Moore and have a quart of oil base high gloss mixed.  Use a 
good sample of Heathkit green.
You can easily remove the dark green raised part of the Apache panel.  I 
use my spray gun and bake in the oven at lowest setting or you could 
have it done at a body shop.
Getting it professionally power coated it the neat way to go but you 
still got to have a good sample of Heathkit green.  Luck and 73.
Wayne,
