I don’t want to spend much on the renovation of my machineries.

I have a construction company and have several machines like mixing plant, tripper trucks, soil diggers etc. Most of the equipments lost their smoothness because the paint got peeled off. I don’t want to spend much on renovation of my machineries. Is there any possible way to get them back in good appearance?

Uh, Krylon?

Take them down to East Los Angeles and leave them for a bit and the "new finish" will be applied free of charge (sometimes overnight!).

Don't want to spend money on whitewash for the inside walls, but you can afford a mixing plant, and heavy equipment. . . Something isn't quite adding up here. I definitely sense an oncoming sales pitch.

Its a bit like having a boat and saying you cant be arsed scraping barnacles off. Its a false economy mate, you´re going to have to flash the wedge.

You might get better responses on the Village People website.

Truck bed liner. Yep, that's right. It's extremely durable, available in different colors, can be sprayed or brushed, will tolerate UV, abrasion, moisture most chemicals, immersion and general neglect. Once applied you'll likely not have to do it again. Drop me an email (click on my name) and I'll tell you which brands do what.

Truck bed liner? - - don't you mean Osama Bin Liner? & a gay man to hold his AK47?

I don't have a problem with that. Drop him into a bender, spin at puree for 5 minutes, add super glue and spread evenly with a trowel.

I wouldn't want to ruin a perfectly good AK, maybe it could be used a suppository.
