Q-grill stand resto

Squashfest81 · Jun 13, 2022

We’ve been rocking the Coleman portable grill while camping for the past 3 years. I just limped it through last season.
It’s time to move to the Weber Q. This old Weber stand fell into my lap. It’s getting a resto.
Any camper grill talk is appreciated, especially any customy setups.

All pulled apart and ready for cleanup and spray.
Anyone know how to address the plastic top? It’s not bad, but could be better. I’ve been wanting to try the torch method, like I’ve seen done on kayaks. This may be the perfect test for that.

Looks like a satisfying project. Careful through weber grills can get addictive. I have like 8 of them.

Thanks redm. Funny, I’ve got a big ole house propane grill and the Weber Q as keepers. I’ve got a big Vermont castings grill I’m going to kick out and even find the Traeger a new home. Now bikes, that’s my problem. Got like a dozen riders and a few projects.
Here’s a pic to prove progress. Wire brushed. These will go prime and white this weekend.

Played a little hooky from work today.
Got all the stand parts primed and painted. Decided to sand the plastic top, as it’s that almost fiberglassy stuff, and paint with left over hammered black.
