Restoration, case repair and repaint of an Optimus 8 stove. This is the earlier version stove without the built-in cleaning needle that appeared later in the ubiquitous 8R.
This particular paint color is Dupli-Color EBHA09067 Hampstead Green. It's a fairly close match to the original Optimus green found on some Optimus 8 (not 8R!) stoves. Available in automotive shops throughout the USA.
