    It does pay to comparison shop!

    Me too ..... I never buy from O'Reilly, Napa, et al. The only reason I ever go to O'Reilly is they are the only place in town that still turns brake rotors when I do my brake jobs.

    Painting Door of 1959 Frigidaire Deluxe fridge (D-13-59)

    So ..... it sounds like it is an aluminum decorative panel over the steel door. Two options? Either ..... paint the panel and after it drys, carefully block sand the top of the embossing with a very fine paper to remove just the turquoise paint. Or, apply an aluminum colored paint as I...

    Painting Door of 1959 Frigidaire Deluxe fridge (D-13-59)

    Hmmmmm .... is the door made out of aluminum or an aluminum skin that is embossed? That would make more sense than a delicate pattern embossed into steel. Can't imagine this being the case on steel because of rusting, but on an aluminum panel that was first clear anodized, then painted. Once...

    Painting Door of 1959 Frigidaire Deluxe fridge (D-13-59)

    Unbelievable!

    I must be the odd man out ..... Tide liquid, hot water most of the time, no fabric softener. Coin toss at this point, our washing habits or a pos spider design. I vote for the latter. If it were made of stainless or straight aluminum, we wouldn't be having the discussion.

    Unbelievable!

    Update ..... Now going on 418 days since pimping out the replacement tub spider in our daily driver Amana front loader that I originally posted about in this thread. This machine gets used daily. With myself, a wife, a daughter and a 2 year old mess maker living in this house, this washing...

    Correct Frigidaire Lid Bumpers .....

    Steved ..... Thanks for the feedback! I am so glad to hear they fit 1-18's. The hole they fit in is 1/4". Any machine that requires a grey lid bumper could most likely use these even if the lid hole was smaller ..... simply by drilling out the hole using a 1/4" bit. But the original bumper...
