My homely little pedals. A couple of them anyways. Many warts, they get a lot of use. The Dr. Quacky is scattered, smothered, & covered in Testors model paint(applied with a q-tip). I really dig the way the controls for the EA Trem spell out my little initials.

They look great Ricky, i love the "Dymo" stickers, very retro '70's !
Just painted my first "Hammond" box and its gone horribly wrong !
the box rejected the metal primer, then when i sprayed it with "sparkle purple" car paint it reacted and now has a nasty skin disese!
Looks like a purple alligator ! its flaking off so it will have to be stripped tomorrow .. . .. . ..
Whats all this "bake in the oven for 2 hrs stuff ? can't i just use car spray paint ?
Cool boxes,thanks for the pics

Only primer made for aluminum will work. I didn't use any primer. The hammerite finishes will stick pretty well to any metal. If u use a car paint you will want to bake it in an old toaster oven or something. Do a search and you'll find a lot of threads with good info.
