I decided to start a new thread on my fridge build. Hope you all dont mind. I was pretty unhappy with the look of the old one and decided I need to make a few changes. I started with using JB WELD to fill aprox 25 holes I drilled in the side to hold in the insulation. Next I sanded everything down preparing for paint. I was wanting to do a bright neon green but after using 10 cans the paint wouldnt come out even so I had to change plans. I had a few cans of truck bed coating layin around the house and decided to use that. It turned out great and even better the rubber coating wont scratch. I decided to throw in some accent pieces with the neon green I had in mind. I reinsulated it with 1" thick mineral wool fiber boards. It still isnt done so I will post a few more pics in the next few weeks. Let me know what you think.
The JB WELD in the holes I drilled in the side
Sanded down smooth
Original Plan. As you can see the paint isnt even and it looks even worse in the sun.
The smoke stacks are not set yet. I just wanted to see how it looked. I will make these removable so I can roll it out of the covered patio. This version is universal. You can see the 55 gallon barrel conversion into a stove next to the fridge. I will use this in competition. I didnt have time to get to the top stripes and the accent piece but it will be identical to the bottom. I am hopin to get to this next week. The handle and latches on the right side will be neon green as well.
