[Heathkit] Cabinet repainting

The way I make the "Heathkit texture" is with my HVLP sprayer.  Turn the air down so it half "spits" and half sprays the paint out. The little paint blobs flatten down to being darn close to what Heath has.

Since the SB line has a slight textured finish 
you will need to find something for a base coat that produces the desired 
texture. Our local auto store has a fine wrinkle spray in gray that looks 
like it might be a good choice. I have also seen other texture finishes at 
Hobby Lobby that look close.
