Thanks Simon

Is the powder coat they used available commercially, or is it specific to the ones you used?

Alot of the work they do is for various military factions globally so its an MOD approved powder, genuinely IR non reflective so I reckon youd have a difficult job getting that particular stuff elsewhere.

Its exactly the same tone as Krylon Olive except the Krylon is flat. Ive had to patch a small bit in where he'd missed the powder but you cant see it the match is that good (except its flat instead of satin). I may drift a little satin lacquer over to blend the 'shine' in, or perhaps a polish? - what dya think?

Update: I was going to build a new loom but managed to buy a super condition one, so soaked and scrubbed, came up like new ready for fit:

So overall, not got very far yet :D
