I am going to repaint a couple of Wilton machinist vises (400 and 500

What color would you say be the best? grey (as in galvanizing paint)
or red on top of it?

I like gloss white with a red pinstripe. Lots of folks are fixated on
depressing gray. Some like blue. Zebra stripes might be nice. Suit
yourself.
