Guys thanks for comments. The water containers are safe there was no way I was painting them. The fuel cans, one was blue and the other was mostly rusty with hardly any original paint.
Cheers Karl

Default Russian Markings

As suggested by several people I have finally got round to putting Russian markings on and then painting over them. Made up Stencil for first one. Hope to make two more soon
