In prepping for moving, I’ve been going through several Craftsman gray steel toolboxes that were my father’s, father in laws, or mine. A couple of them are showing some rust on the bottom, but there is no structural problem. I would want to touch them up on the bottom to prevent the rust from spreading. Anyone know what paint would match pretty closely? These boxes are all at least thirty years old, so they are of the vintage Craftsman variety.
Have you had any luck in finding a paint match yet?
It’s tricky with modern boxes, as they are often powder coated, but I’d look at automotive touch-up kits.
That’s exactly what I did. I was pressed for time and made a quick match for some gray color at a parts store. I came pretty close, but the touch up jobs was only going on the bottom of the boxes.
