i'm definitely painting the firebox next time.
not thrilled with the pam treatment.
though i will likely still use the pam in the exhaust duct after cleaning the combustion blower blades.
 
Hello

Ok guys, here are the final pics!

I painted the entire firebox and top heat exchanger baffles VHT Flame Proof 2,000 Deg F flat black.
Then painted the back of the fire brick flat black.

Then 1200 Deg F Stove Bright copper on the firebrick with the Surf Sand on the mortar!

You are so right Dexter, it sure needed it!

We had some copper in the tiles under it and in back of it. So Imacman was a great help in showing us what he did. Nice to see how it looks before you do it! Thanks again Pete!

Also have a friend that is going to drop his stove off at my house to refurb! Good to have a little experience first!

If I get time, I still want to replace the brass auger bushing. I want to take it out measure it and buy a generic plastic and brass cheap. Then see which works better!

Anybody paint the exterior of a Harman? I would like to move my spare into the house for the shouldering but been told" no way your going to put a black stove upstairs". The living room has a very nice blue enamel gas Dovre with custom hearth etc and I set the standard abit high
 
Why wouldn't a harman take paint?
lol
Paint that dang thing and post pics!
 
Do you think this stove could use any paint?
Paint me, paint me!!! That stove is screaming for a makeover. Can someone help? Oh, the humanity of it all! The Hindinburg didn't look that bad compared to this.
 
Nothing says pimp my stove like this.
