I'm in the process of restoring my father's old milling machine.

What should I do about the paint work? Some is good quality, but half is peeling and shit.

I assume that it's lead paint, as the mill is probably 50+ years old.

This thing is a beast, it must weigh at least 1500kg. I don't want to take it apart to paint it.

What do you suggest? I want it looking like new.
