What kind of varnish?

**chen bao jun** · September 29th, 2013, 01:55 PM

Did anyone happen to notice what the silver innovation primavera on ebay sold for? i missed when it sold (was not going to buy it but was curious as to price)

Has anyone had any luck fixing what looks like rust on the border of a border Ficci? I got it cheaply on swap because I knew I could live with it, but if I could fix it that would be great.

ETA: The enamel is in great shape, and I'm afraid of doing something that will mess it up.

Can you dab a bit of silver rustoleum paint on it? then dab a clear shiny varnish over that spot to make it shine?

I may get DH to try that Dulce, thanks! (My asthma precludes me from being in the vicinity of the stuff, else I would have already tried to paint one of the Fakkares. I want a medium blue jeans quite badly!!)

Just a spray varnish, I am sure any would do. This one is German made (I am from Europe).

Yes it sold for $46, I was pretty surprised.
