- A client wanted me to strip off the paint of an old storage chest she got from a thrift store. Little did we know that it's an old US Army footlocker, which I suspect dates back to the 40's. This video shows how I restored this old trunk.

Cool. I just found a 1949 foot locker for 5 bucks. Thanks for this
🙏
nice u are a good creator
Hey, thanks!
This is not a foot locker but more a transportation box for unit or personal gear. It appears to have a “tac mark”. I have one from my late father in law and WW2 vet
Good to know. Thanks!
It reminds me of my grandfather. He owns one like that and inside was a Philippine map and other items.
Sending you virtual hugs... 🤗
What type of paint did you use on the metal parts? I just inherited two of my grandads army trunks and lookin to paint them.
Epoxy primer and then black house paint. I used acrylic, but enamel is better. The gold effect is metallic acrylic.
