[TowerTalk] Rusty tower

[Floyd Sense]

I'm with Bill.  I refurbished an old Rohn 25G this year, and used sandpaper 
and then the Rustoleum from Home Depot.  I then sprayed a coat of ultra flat 
black Krylon, available from WalMart.  I found it necessary to allow the 
Rustoleum to cure for 24 hours before applying the Krylon to get the best 
result.  The black Krylon will fade in extreme sunlight in a few years, 
ending up much lighter - about medium gray.
