Default Paint

Brad ,

The local Auto parts shop here has it in aerosol cans . But only one colour , Black . VHT brand .

You may try instrument repair shops , as they may use it ?

I have used it on No. 11 set front panels and other radios like 109 and 101 , all these sets have Black panels, it worked OK . I dried the parts in the kitchen oven to make them " set " .

I've never seen Brown crinkle parts on a 19 set . The only crinkle finish Iv'e seen on 19 sets were some U.S. made cases , brands like RCA and Philco , these were olive green.

All the sets I've ever seen/owned over the years, various brands -British, Canadian, Australian , have plain paint finish on all the parts. But, its possible they painted some bits in Brown crinkle , because so many 19 sets were built , ubiquitous they are .

Mike
