Has anyone in Aust. used Protec paints ? Apparently they have the current ADF paint contract .. they make camo colours in 2 pack finish . There is a branch in Dandenong . They have a wide range of finishes and base types ...

Hi MIke,
Yep we here in the west use Protec extensively. The aerosol cans were a great boost to vietnam war and later era restoration over the past 6-7 years. They have only very recently raised their prices (I hear the aerosol cans have doubled) but I have been using their products with every success. Very happy with it. Cheers Phill

Hi all - been using them for years. Great product. Have used countless gallons of Khaki Green No.3 as well as other specialised colours.

Hi Bob
Is the Khaki Green # 3 a standard colour off the shelf or have you had it mixed to a sample , what I am asking is can I go into Protec here in the West and obtain it over the counter as a standard colour. Regards Jim S.

Hi Jim - I sourced this colour around 2000 when I was restoring a Bren Gun Carrier. The sample came from a protected spot on the Carrier so was a good representation. As I said previously, since then have used gallons of the stuff, as has Colin. The Protec lab in Adelaide has the formula so if you were to ring my contact, Andy, on 08 8447 6311, he shpuld be able to get the lab to forward the formula. When you get it made you can also get some put into spray cans for touch ups and small jobs.
I had some made for wood paint and this is the formula for that. Khaki Green No. 3 Timbercote • 4l yellow base • B: 9Y, 20 • D: 1Y • F: 34 • A: 1Y, 20 Bob
