Re: A History of Zinc Chromate
That article was originally published on the ipms Stockholm site. It is a great reference. Not only on zinc chromate but also on all the other interior colours use in us aircraft. I used it as a reference for my XP-47H build and decided to do the interior Bronze green, not Zinc Chromate becuase of this article.

nice. Thanks.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Every take-off has a landing...some are just better than others
