Does Miller sell replacement decals?

[rslaback]

I picked up a Millermatic 200 minus a whip today for $300 because it is in pretty rough cosmetic shape. I am toying with the idea of sanding down the sheet metal and giving it at least a new paint job.

Does anyone know if Miller offers replacement decal sets?

They sure do. I repainted and re-decal'ed this Miller Bobcat with a decal set from Miller.

So does Lincoln ... if you're thinking of a colour change.

Wow, looks new. Nice job !

Thanks - just to show what a difference a little paint, a few decals, and about 5,000 hours of labor can make (lol!) this is what it started as... It doesn't show in the picture, but there wasn't one square inch of the sheet metal that wasn't gouged, dented, scraped, or scarred...

From the way it looked originally, I'll bet you do have some hours in that project.

Seeing the before and after photo, it's hard to believe it's the same unit.

The paint job looks great and the labels REALLY set it off.

Again, very good job.

PS: Thanks for that before photo. It tells the real story !

It was PPG Shop-Line, matched at the local paint dealer from the inside of one of the side panels that wasn't faded. They kept trying to steer me toward more expensive paint since Shop-Line is among the cheapest of their offerings, but I had to keep them telling them it was for a piece of machinery and I wasn't buying Deltron or another high-end paint. As somebody who's been mostly used to Rustoleum for paint, the PPG sprayed amazingly and the gloss was fantastic.

MILLER replied to my request writing "We use DUPONT paint code C5885"

I am looking for deal on MILLER Coolmate for my Dial Arc 250 TIG/Stick

You can buy the blue paint from Miller as well. When I wanted a place to store all my TIG parts I picked up paint and a decal kit for my dealer and made a little "Miller" tool box.
