colored washers yet again

1999-10-07 by hodad1@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx

Since I have nothing better to do, I thought I'd bring this up yet again.
My question to those who care:  have you tried paint?
A while back I got a bit caught up in the colored washer frenzy & did a bit
of experimenting.
I painted some steel & aluminum washers I borrowed from work(first primed
them with Zinc
Chromate, then sprayed with whatever color was at hand), & the results were
reasonably
satisfying.  Aesthetically they were satisfactory, but the finish would not
tolerate excessive
wear.  Still, seems somehow to be a little more satisfying than Sir
Marks-a -Lot.
