Nice! I like the handle idea! I'd give it a day. Go too soon and even high-heat paint will peel off. It needs 24 hours to cure.

I would think 24 hours would be fine. What does the can recommend?
I put 2 coats on mine. Very nice job on the drum. |

None on mine. If you paint it it might not be ugly. Still a man from the phone company came over the other day to do a repair and lost his mind over my rusty old drum.
