List,
Thanks for the input.. never did think about the era...would prefer not
to get the mustard green OD, leaning more towards the flat-er color,
but the stuff that is on it now faded to almost gray shows every greasy
fingerprint and wipe smears.
50's or 60-70's? Have to think about that.
Also once one selects the correct paint how much do I need to do the
beast?
Tks (again) in advance.
P.S. while we are talking paint.. I have a WIP 53 M-38A1 Ex Navy in
Gray,it is a semi gloss on it now and looks good would like to re-apply
this. What do you suggest for this?
Daryl
