Here are some pics of my offset that I finally got around to refurbishing.  I just hope the paint that I used will hold up.

New Braunfels Black Diamond? Or BBQz Galore? That's looking great (grate...pun intended).

thanks all, I hope the paint will hold up for atleast a couple of years before I got to do it again.  It said that it was 1200 degree paint so we will see.

JEREMY, i forgot to mention- if the paint on the firebox messes with you too much , you can always take it down to bare metal and season with oil like a dutch oven! Iv'e done it a couple times and you do have to re-season every so often but it will season up after a few times!

Or you can do like me and buy manifold spray paint at AutoZone for the firebox. Except I bought white. Not the smartest idea.

That'll set it apart from the crowd! Post a pic, man!

I haven't even started on the firebox side handle! I have the Hammer version...Can't touch that!

This thread gives me courage and some ideas too. I just bought a New Braunfels Black Diamond last weekend. It has plenty of rust all around, although none of it has eaten deeply into the steel.

I purchased a 4 1/2" angle grinder and a wire cup brush at Harbor Freight Tools in Tempe. The purchase set me back all of $19 with tax. Better than using my good drill and a wire wheel.

I am intrigued by the color options available with the manifold paint. I will have to look into that.
