After experimenting with Mariner Blue I have decided to go with black and white like you did for two reasons one black and white are available at most lowes or home depot in 2000 degree options and two black goes with almost everything. Looks good!
Awesome videos on the channel my friend. Question for you: I'm getting my hands on an oldddddddd Imperial Kamado my buddy is giving me for "free-99." Looks like, the Fire Ring is missing (never cooked on a Kamado before so I'm not sure if that is a "must have" or if it's an optional piece of equipment), the ceramic grate at the bottom is broken in half, and the fire box looks beat up in the video he sent but he says it ain't broken. The main body is good and solid. Did you replace the fire box, fire ring, & grate when you restored yours and if so where did you get the parts? or if you used KJ or BGE stuff, what model will fit our Kamados?

aMAZING JOB ON THE RESTORATION
What paint sheen did you use? Flat, satin , gloss?
Is that a Kamado joe classic hinge, bands and handle? I’m restoring one just like this and want better bands and hinge
yes, but I had to cut and weld back together to make it fit FYI
What bracket y did you use for replacement
I got one for a BGE and had to modify it as it was a bit large. So I cut out a section and welded it back together.

Just get one from big Joe or Kamado Joe
what paint did you use?
Just a high heat black BBQ spray paint from Lowes.
Where did you get your new bands, hinge, handle?
