Sterling L2A3 Wrinkle Finish Paint

[lima]

Dead right Brian. Additionally, the crackle paint was painted over the phosphate finish. It was the same paint, made by TRIMITE, that was used on MGB dashboards if you're interested

Peter,
Would Trimite J136 (spec below) be about the same product as the original Sterling finish? Seems to be quite popular with speaker cabinet makers at the moment.

Do you happen to know if it was spray applied and baked or just air dried at the factory?

I am restoring some Police Carbines and would love to match the factory coating as much as possible.

Thank you,
Andrew

PS - I cherish my copy of GoD
