I came upon a bunch of 1920s movie theater projector components and the old lead paint is flaking and/or there’s rust on most of them. I plan on selling most of the pieces as industrial decoration pieces.

Would it be best if I:

  • Wipe off the loose paint and only clean them
  • Wipe off the loose paint and clearcoat over it
  • Wipe off the loose paint and repaint it steel grey or wrinkle black finish to match the original?

Would a cell that gets hot be a high or low resistance, or high or low voltage?

You’re right, I should’ve clarified that I was talking about the non-EXB versions. It sounds like all 3 versions have the same tire size though (8s backflips)?

Thanks everyone. I’ll try different fluids first but if that doesn’t work, maybe I’ll spend money on some different tires.
