[QUOTE="daveydempsey, post: 4375486, member: 22"]It would have had several coats of paint on and was probably stripped in a caustic soda tank in the 80's. There is no evidence of any paint on it now, the only problem with dipping them in tanks is it dissolves any glues it had and makes them loose. The box has turned out good though, I've sanded it down and waxed it this evening. Pictures to follow[/QUOTE]
