I think you'll need the number of a vacuum therapist to help it get through the transition. I'm assuming you already have an all original model in your collection? |

Then I primed the body inside and out, I then painted the body black , I used the best spray paint from Home Depot I could find for metal , I did 2 coats of grey primer and then 2 coats of black paint , I then reassemble the whole vacuum ,, and here it is :) I hope this help, |

Looks great, Brad! Geez, if I had known it was this easy, I would have just refurbished a nice Electrolux Grand Marquise myself & saved myself the money I paid to buy one professionally refurbished. Could you not find gold paint though?? Or were you inspired to paint yours black by the new 90th anniversary black Aerus models?

I wanted to have a black and chrome and white Super J So I chose the main colour to be black , The only thing is I notice the handle and wheels are faded , but it s looks good , I really like the polished aluminum pn ,, It pulls the whole vac ensample nicely together ,,, |

That polished aluminum powered brush is the cat's meow, something really special. |
