A number of parts vendors have heater paint. I don't know if they are a match for the original.

Like Gus (DADS50), I used Hammerite Bronze rattle can paint on my '54 heater. I saw it first on Deve Krehbiel's site. Deve states that it is available through Eastwood. I couldn't find it on the Eastwood site. A local paint store ordered the two cans that I used. Google "Hammerite" for suppliers.

It is very close to the original color of paint that was on my heater. The original paint is in the center of this pic, the newly painted Hammerite is around it. The hammered texture is very pronounced -- more than I would like to have, but the color is good. Gus's heater has less texture than mine. Maybe my painting technique was off.

Info on my heater.

Good luck with your heater.
