Default Re: Vintage BBC headers

When painting headers yourself, I learned many years ago the hard way. My first experience, I am sure many of you have had this happen, I would use VHT paint and after the first start-up, the paint would start to peel almost instantly. I learned this trick from a friend of mine, I use a hand torch and heat up the header from the inside and then apply the paint. I never had a problem after this.
