first.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Re Painting rusty tower
I painted my 108 ft Rohn 25 this year. Most sections had little or no
signs of rust. The
most rusty was as sound as it was when it was new. As I recall, a little
steel wool
removed the surface rust, and I painted it with a commercial grade
Rustoleum aluminum
colored paint, using a painting mitt. Both available at Home Depot.
Good idea to wear a
rubber glove under the mitt...the longer it goes up your arm the better.
The mitt makes it
a real fast job. I brought the paint up the tower in a gallon bucket...
The whole tower
took only a quart of the paint. Happy Holidays...JACK W1WEF
I'm impressed Jack, I would have wound up with 1 qt. on my face alone.
and
curious
did you paint on the way UP or way DOWN? :-)
ps: your comport interface is still working perfectly and simplest
design I've found.
