I have a Colchester 13x36 Dominion lathe and would like to clean it up since it is pretty sad looking right now. It was painted grey but a lot of that has flaked off. Under the grey is a light green that is a bit of a creamy colour and under the light green on the upper, it is a dark green. I have heard about them being two-toned but the dark green under the light seems to me that it was all one colour.
But then I was thinking as I looked at the rests that I have. One has the darker green under the light green but the steady rest is light green only. Maybe they painted them completely in dark green and then did a secondary paint on them to get the two-tone.
Anybody have any input on this? In this photo, the headstock shows the light green which is over the dark green.
