[Hallicrafters] Hallicrafters wrinkle paint finishes

[Glen Zook]

If you repaint a hammertone finish the hammertone will
be covered up!  Most of this type of finish is in the
color differences and not in the texture.

For "crackle" finishes I use an overspray of
Rust-Oleum American Accents Stone Creations paint. 
The gray color works the best (there are several
different colors available).  You have to get a "feel"
for just how to apply this paint, but when done
carefully the texture is a very good wrinkle.  After
the texture paint dries you then spray the correct
color over it.

I would like to ask if anyone has gone to the
hammertone finish. I had thought of doing this and
then topping it off with the correct Halli color. Any suggestions.
