I've only seen rusted out mufflers on the old 2 stroke Victa mowers I can't remember what colour they came out from factory.
I know the later models were silver but what were the older ones?
I am doing a mini resto project and I don't want to paint the muffler silver if it was another colour.
Does anyone have any images or brochures from back in the day. I'm talking mid 80s to late 90s

I think Matt black would be fine

Yes I don't remember ever seeing the early PT muffler silver or painted black , from memory they were just darkened steel so flat black may be the closest.but matt black will be ok.

Yes I'll use VHT black exhaust spray. Apparently matte black has a slight sheen and flat black has none

After you burn it once, the sheen will be gone.
