A few weeks ago, I decided my chain-link fence looked like something out of Sanford and Son. I don't think it had been painted since it was installed. Aside from it looking like crap, it also left rust stains on my new driveway whenever it rained. Something had to be done, and that something was paint. My first attempt I managed to wire brush off one side and get it painted, but found silver marks under my nose. I was paranoid about aluminum poisioning from the paint for at least a week. Today I decided to brave the hot sun and aluminum paint to finish it off, but this time armed with a face mask. I took before and after shots for comparison. Even though it took me almost 3 hours (6 total) I think it was well worth it. A pat on my back for such a beautiful job.
