Sandy, thanks for posting the link to this website. I have a couple of old vacs that I have been thinking of painting....so this advice will give a step in the right direction to producing some good results, hopefully. Rob |

LOL!....this is the tricky part. I've struggled with the same question and have made many attempts trying to do it. I understand that there is a "paint pen" available at art stores that would have a fine enough point to fill in the logo.
Good luck with it, and if anyone has any better suggestions, I'd like to know about them. |

i would imagine that it would be easier to first paint the letters. cover them somehow and then paint the body. I guess a trip to an art supply store might be usefull. |
