Take it to a good auto body repair place. Alternatively, look for a place that does powder coating.

Either one should be able to strip and repaint.

The AMPS reflector would also be a good place to ask.

I have an Alpha 374 that I keep as a contest backup.  Very reliable (I
guess, only plugged in once every year or two to test) but the paint on the
wrap-around cover is "sticky".  I know some people have re-painted them,
anyone know what works?  Or the ham who was repainting these if you sent
them to him (albeit years ago)?   Thanks.  73, Dave K3ZJ
