Hunter/Robbins & Myers R-52 Ceiling Fan w/Adapt-Air, 1958/'60 (Fan 1 of 2)

One of a pair of mid-century R-52s restored by ‪@dspiffy‬, ‪@MetalPete_the_metalfan‬ and ‪@ricksterthefanman‬. The two fans are from 1958 and '60, I'm not sure offhand which was which. These late-run R-52s along with the essentially identical successor model 22046 are my favorite version of Hunter's venerable cast iron ceiling fans prior to the "Original" designation.

Also, that high speed is about as fast as my SMC HUB42 (Hampton Bay Littleton) made in May 2000

And also about as fast as my 1992 Encon Casanova

What paint brand/color did you use for this finish? I’m thinking of doing the same color on one
