<< Refinishing stove face and indicator panel >>
    I did mine last winter.  I took some strips of masking tape and cut it
into 1/16" strips.  Then used this to mask around the graphics as close as
possible.  Then filled in the outline with more small pieces of masking tape.
 Sanded the area to be painted well then sprayed with a grey paint bomb that
closely matched the grey of the Westy's cabinet fixtures.
    Someone did mention a while back that you could take a scan of the
graphics then have that scan transferred to a decal by a print shop.  That
way you could have an all new looking faceplate.  Anyone out there who can do
this and offer the decals to the List members ?
