Paint Over That Rust!!!!

Mossy Monk · 2003-08-08 14:39:33

my minidish has rust on the front. would this affect the signal quality? i want to paint over it using some of that rust paint. Hammerlite i think it's called. would this be a good idea or would it be a stupid thing to do?

But polish any rust off first.

Car spray paint works.

Use a dull colour, not dark as dish can heat up and bend, not too bright so as to focus sun on LNB twice a year at equinoxes.
