Hi Tony - sorry you are having hassles with Protec, but I will let you sort that out. Below is the formula that I used for the colour for a timber paint. Depending on the base colour of the metal paint, I use Protec Equipment Enamel 304, the formula should be the same. I did not need to flatten it as it was for timber. The laboratory here does the metal paint flattening for me.

Khaki Green No. 3 Timbercote
• 4l yellow base
• B: 9Y, 20
• D: 1Y
• F: 34
• A: 1Y, 20
Paint code ex. Protec Paints

Khaki Green No.3 is B.S. 381-1939
Humbrol model paint code 30 should give you the colour match.

Your paint shop in Gympie should be able to get that right which just leaves you with the flattening problem, but I see there is plenty of good advice from our fellow MLUers. Just let me know if I can help you with anything.

Bob
