I think only the sun is that bright:> I love pink machines! But that pink...ouch. Is your 301 in really poor condition?
I took the throat plate part to my local paint store and they talked me out of painting it. They basically told me the spray paint I was hoping to get would not look the same as the rest of the baked on machine paint and that it would stand out:< So, my Elna will have to live with its chips. I guess the only way to really make a machine look decent with spray paint is to do the whole thing like you plan. Would dabbing the emblem with rubber cement work do you think? And then peeling it off afterwards?
