Attached photo supplied by John Wheatley when he was still with us. He
was very concerned that the correct Burgess plate be affixed as well
as the proper hammertone color.
Prior 100 Air Cleaners were done in crakle finish black. Both of these
paints are found available from Rustoleum. Hank

	I too found that the Rustoleum Hammertone Verde Green is pretty close
to the colour I have seen on the air cleaners. Having said that, I
have been unable t locate a business having them in stock. It is not
available in Canada and while Menard’s in the US claim to carry it,
none of them have it in stock at the moment. I’d like to purchase a
can and spray it on a paint card to compare to an original, although
after sixty plus years under a hot bonnet, the paint has likely faded,
changed or otherwise no longer exactly as the day it was painted. 

	I will also do a paint card with the silver hammertone from Rustoleum
and then when dry give it a very light coat of the engine green to see
if the hammertone would show through, I am doubtful it will work but
it’s worth a try.

Hammertone paint.

	Gentlemen,  

	The correct hammertone green (that matched engine color) for the air
cleaners from off the shelf sources DOES NOT EXIST!   

	When Roger M. and I did our cars we took a green shade that was close
and added pigment (white, black and yellow) to perfectly match the
engine color. Not easy, but doable and worth the effort.

	Cheers,

	I have been unsuccessful I my search for light green Hammertone or
hammer finish paint for my BN2 airfilter housings.  

	Does anyone know where this may be available or even have a can or
part can that I can purchase?
