Main stand after painting

Here it is with the weld to reinforce top tube and lower curved sections. Sorry it's so horrible - it was difficult to get  a clean run because of the rust still in there. Oh well.

It's not horrible, it's organic ;-) Mine would be the same were it not for significant investment in grinding wheels.

What's the paint on it? The finish looks like plastic coating.

Looks rather fine.

The finish is zinc primer with a top coat of an International black paint. It's not quite as shiny as Smoothrite but I'm not sure about the surface. It doesn't seem as robust. We'll see how it fairs in action ... eventually :-)
