Vesicant Paint
Apparently once plentiful I can't seem to find an original tin available, anyone have a pot that can be put to good use?
Cheers

Re: Vesicant Paint
Yer, Difficult to work out exactly what the colour is, it seems to start off a darker mustardy yellow and then fades out as it degrades. If anyone has any i'd love to get hold of a tin!

Re: Vesicant Paint
Any luck? I’m looking for some in the American shade myself

Re: Vesicant Paint
The Ral 1027 Curry was an excellent shade match btw:

Re: Vesicant Paint
Thank, very kind of you to say! Hopefully one day I can apply some real vesicant paint to my jeep hood, that would be a really great day for me!

Re: Vesicant Paint
The aura design paints are based on the surviving originals, I have only good experiences with them, even their gas paint has a nice shade.
