Here we go again, another Precision dish topic from me, this time it is a 1.5m dish.
I acquired this Precision 1.5m dish some time ago from a fellow satellite hobbyist. The dish was the subject of a previous install topic on this forum that included quite a few photos and a discussion of the install at that time, link pasted below.

When I received the dish it had been painted, however, my personal preference was to restore the paintwork back to the original RAL 9010 Matt White colour used by Precision. There were also a few other small cosmetic jobs that possibly needed attention but nothing that affected the operational performance of the dish. This brief topic will cover my shamateur makeover of the dish, carried out to a work standard typical of a member of the Federation of Master Bodgers.
I have attached a few pictures of the dish below before I commenced the makeover.
