Reply To: How can I get a custom hammertone finish?

Thanks, Phil, for your experience with wrinkle paint. Will try it when I have to repaint my next boat anchor!

Somehow, Northern Electric got their hammertone paint to be perfectly smooth and this is the finish I would like to duplicate. I have attached a picture of the original finish. Have tried mixing the custom-colour spray lacquer on the surface with every silicone-based liquid in the house with no luck.
