Hi Again All

You'll find the original article on this forum at Typewriter Talk » SG Owners Club (boardhost.com) Page 17, reply 165 & 166. Hope this gives you something to work with,

We humans go through many computers in our lives, but in their lives, typewriters go through many of us.
In that way, they’re like violins, like ancestral swords. So I use mine with honor and treat them with respect.
I try to leave them in better condition than I met them. I am not their first user, nor will I be their last.

Thanks, Sky...

Looks like he was/is a member on our Forum, but his last visit was back on 9-2021.

He posted up his machine and the paper support back in 2019.

As far as the repaint, he mentions after a cleaning of the original paint, he applied to coats of new paint right on top of the old paint job.
