Well, I have purchased a 4 litre can of Protec from a local Newcastle agent that I have tracked down. We can start repainting the Bofor after the Queens birthday weekend, for those interested here is a photo of it. It is very good condition considering its age but we plan to do a lot of refurbishing to it.
Immeadiately behind it (you can just see the barrel) is a WW2 Bofor with the British Stiffkey sight. In the foreground you can just see parts of a 25 pounder field gun and in the background is a Studebaker 6x6 truck. The volunteers at the Fort a very keen and anybody wishing to assist would be very welcome. I would like to thank people on this Thread who pointed me in the right direction regarding the correct paint.
