Default yankee seats

Hello,
I did a project on some yankee seats a few years ago. I had to replace some of the lower wood slats as they were a little rotted. I found a good wood shop and he made me 3 extras. (I still have them) was a little expensive but worth it because of the curve. As to the color Its a Sherwin Williams # Its 6797 Jay Blue
Industrial Enamel. The Cans # are also B54TZ404 and 6401-18709 . Here are some pics as we went thru them They came out very nice. I hope that helps you Al
Also try and leave as much of the (sea Foam Green) thats the color they were first painted as you possibly can. Just sand off most of the blue if it hasnt peeled off already. There is such a controversy as to restore or not to restore. Believe me it doesnt make that much difference as to the price. Who would want to sit or for that matter put them in your house with rotted slats and peeling paint! I was able to use all the same bolts and screws. Good luck in your project! If you need more info just PM me.. Al
