Mr and Mrs Frogger redo!
« on: June 10, 2012, 07:37:48 PM »
I had bought these steel/tin garden imports for the wife's rock/pond garden a number of years ago. In the past I cleaned them up and cleared coated them at the start of summer.

As you can see they were getting real faded . she didn't want to dispose of them because she really likes them!

So after cleaning the dirt off them into the blast cabinet they went.

After a coat of industrial primer and a couple coats of acrylic, I put 6 layers of industrial clear UV top coat.
Will put them back in their home tomorrow and with a follow up photo.

Nothing better than a happy wife, after out patient minor surgery. By saving her favorite garden knomes froggy style!  :clap: :thumbup:
