Painting the Car Lift

Finally we started painting the lift yesterday. It took centuries before preparation was finished and as a final action I had to remove a thick layer of some kind of tectyl from the 'runners'. Stuff that does solve when in contact with any kind of paint... Not a good base for some nice & fresh red & white colors!

Here is my wife Paula in action applying the base coat of the Hammerite paint.

And I'm working on my 'beloved' runners...
