EasyRed1944 Posted March 31, 2009 Share #28 Posted March 31, 2009 You're confusing me now....! The red bars - are you saying that they're not really red paint, but used to be gas detection paint that has turned red because of the rust-proofer you've put on? Cheers, Glen. Glen , The mentioned red bars are a reaction on the gas paint getting mixed up with the protection liquid. The gas paint was originally yellow , but when Steven put his protection liquid over the paint , it made a chemical reaction , so the yellow bar reacted and turned red , this is the same way like when it gets in touch with gas.

Blake_E Posted March 31, 2009 Share #29 Posted March 31, 2009 Is that a hint at how caustic/corrosive/carcinogenic/harmful modern day spray paints are? It reacts the same way as poisonous gas hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilles F. Posted April 14, 2009 Share #36 Posted April 14, 2009 Nice finds! During my internship at one of the competence centres of the Belgian army, I met a guy who had found a Colt M1911 in the Ardennes (Bastogne area). Interesting detail: it was loaded and ready to fire! I love the mystery behind such items, they always make me wonder what happened to the owner ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
