Here is a little project I worked on last week.

I recieved my 250w PFO Metal Halide Pendants in the mail from a reefer up in New Jersey on reefcentral. I had seen pics and knew that the paint was peeling before I bought them, but I got them at a great price and didnt mind so much.

My plans- sand down to the bear metal, prime with high heat auto engine primer and them paint with high heat auto engine enamel paint in black.

I like doing stuff like this as a hobby. Im not afraid to tackle small jobs like bumpers, engine parts etc. I wont paint a entire vehicle using spray paint, unless you want that rat look which a lot of guys are into now days.

Problem is I do not have a dust free garage with vents/fan to keep stuff out and help me not breath in the fumes. So im limited to what I can/will do.
