Fabricated Mower Deck

Recommended Posts

Just thought would pass this on. My Dad and I made this about 30 years ago. The original rusted out, he had the stainless steel and the time. All the hardware was salvaged from the older deck. Anyone know how to get red paint to stick to stainless?

Sherwin-Williams sells a product called Industrial Wash primer that you put down first and then can top coat it with red.

Forget that I said powder coat. I say polish it till it shines like chrome. :thumbs:

even with powder you still need to blast the stainless to 'key' the powder to the surface, otherwise it will just peel off in sheets.

Thanks for the info. About to begin a redo on our 857, this goes with it. Hope to have it finished by late summer. Think I will just clean and shine the deck up.
