[VAC] Re: Name plates



Reinstall the nameplate  with Olympic rivets in the existing holes.
Then seal the gaps in the top with the Vulkem, cleaning it all up neat
and tidy with paint thinner (mineral spirits).

Any of the darker blue high quality spray paints will work.   I use
Rustoleum Royal Blue, which is a very close match to the original when
it was compared to the colors found in an older catalog.
