does anyone know what the original color was/is for canedy otto, buffalo, and champion forge and blowers? i am restoring some old forges for a museum blacksmith shop and would like to paint two of the forges as close to the original color as i can?

I have a champion blower that has never seen paint. It has red paint remaining. I would say you'd be safe with a medium red in flat/satin.

I would have to question cleaning paint off as there could be most anything under the paint you see on the outside of that.

You never know if it was an original color or if someone had leftover red tractor paint.
