I can't help you with the painting process but I'll be glad to help you when they come back. |

Modern auto paint and clear coating should give you a beautiful durable finish.
Power coating should work as well as long as there are no plastic parts that go into the curing ovens, although PC may be overkill and often the final finish is not as good looking as auto paint, although it would be more durable if they are going to get hard use.

>> Most auto body shops get a scared look on their face when you bring them 50 year old cabinets, so any referrals are appreciated.
How about a local trade school? Cars are complex surfaces, with all kinds of curves to manage. But these flat surfaces should be a perfect canvas for students to hone their skills on. |
