Great job.

Not as good as what was available before 2024
This stuff has way less solids than previously available Zinc Chromate marine/aviation paint. It is therefore more runny and may not last as long. This brand has the color right, which is important when touching up the original Zinc Chromate on vintage aircraft.

Colt 601 M16 furniture paint
Correct ugly green for your retro Colt 601 stock, grip and handguards. Leaves a dull shine that burnished well. An authentic look that makes anyone ask "what were they thinking 65 years ago?".
Thank you so very much. It came on time, and in perfect condition. I wasn't sure at the time, but now I am glad this comes in hardback. I'll be carrying it everywhere to study as much as possible and can see how much use it will get over the next year. Thank you again.
I have used this plotter for a long time. It make charting very simple because everything is in one place. I am an instructor and many of my students have bought one.
