No red, just tan primer and black paint.

Thanks, I need all the luck I can get. Been many, many years since I had a paint gun in my hands...

Thanks Jim.

Not too bad actually, I did have a " helper " to move them around, well today anyway. I moved them all last night by myself.

I'd love to have them powder coated, but it isn't up to me.....

Yeah, there are a few around big enough to do them though.

Sometimes on the smaller items that might work, but not on something this size.
