Enamel Sign Restoration Antique enamel signs are a passion at Antique Sign Restorations. As trade professionals and avid collectors, we can sympathise with the age and condition of individual antique enamel signs. Special surface preparation ensures a smooth finish whilst preserving the signs original charm and rustic look of old metal and enamel. Any missing test and graphic artwork is hand mapped by Christine Lewis using over 25 years experience in traditional sign and ticket writing experience. Fine attention to detail and keen eye for colour and precise paint matching delivers beautiful results every time. Christine?s experience and expertise has led to signs coming to her from all over Australia. Every sign that comes into my workshop is a challenge, my work never gets boring, my passion is fixing the pictorial signs, and their beautiful graphics are from a time of elegance. Sympathetic restoration is key in maintaining the signs overall age and history. In essence, I am ensuring our heritage, our past, is so important to preserve. So many enamel signs were used as target practice, mixing concrete, patch fences and garden edging. I breathe new life into them and its rewarding to see them restored, but each sign must retain its age and integrity without being over restored.
