So recently I've been able to complete one of my projects thats been hanging over my head (literally)! This was a 1997 gloss black Casablanca Stealth with cherrywood blades, however when I found it, it had been painted over with interior latex paint, making it white. I decided to refurbish it and since I already have two gloss black Stealths, I decided to go with a classic white finish since that seems to be a fairly uncommon finish for these fans. I had also thought about making this the first Ferrari Red Stealth, but it didn't have antique oak blades which would have gone perfectly with that finish. I also looked into chrome plating services to make this a chrome Stealth, but the quotes were expensive and it would have taken a while. To make this project more interesting, I made a video to show my step by step work process, it also explains the project a little more. Theres also a separate demonstration video. Let me know what you guys think, enjoy! The project video, some people are telling me that the video doesn't work for them, so let me know if there are any problems.: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRqBKmw26sA Demonstration video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9ZVXQNnLjI The room makes the finish appear darker than it actually is.

Thanks everyone! I was afraid the cherrywood would look odd with a white finish.

First time I've seen a Stealth in a while. Love them.

Simply amazing... Do you have any pics of your black Stealths that you might be able to show us?
