Super Blahh!
My dad always included hearts in his tool art. This heart needs love.
I started with some good ol' scouring with a wire brush, to get the rust, dirt, and flakes of old paint off. Then I wiped the whole thing down as best I could.
I learned all about the beauty of a spray paint handle! These things are like $4 and so amazing! Would also suggest using a GIANT drop cloth (or three) instead of just one small sheet. Learned that one the hard way, but that's a different story.
A couple coats of "Royal Red" and this thing is as good as new! Tip: don't sit on a wrench bench in shorts on a really hot day! Unless you want a tool shape branded on your....ahem.
I made sure to hit my name-tag as well. Love this so much!
So then I started looking around at all the other items in my yard....
When I get over my new fear of spray paint I'll tackle one of these.
