Paint
A couple of you have asked why the old codes from the company are not used. Just to keep you in the picture here is the following explanation(s).
M&W although still in production has changed hands from the previous owners due to that ever continueing saga of getting old. The gentlemen who were in business during the 40's no longer reside in this dimension. The company although very proud of its lineage did not, back in the 50s or 60s have any further use for material, data etc from the wartime production era. As with most companies they look forward and the past although important is not always a priority. Take Ford of Canada and their archives....no one is looking after that section of the company and they really do not give a damn. They are trying to survive in todays market, but I digress. With newer pigments, fixers and processes even with the old codes it may not be possible to exact the conditions and contents. Thus my journey and with the cooperation of the hobby at large I will endeavour to provide a source for that all important last stage of restoration....PAINT.
