This may be a bit off topic for the Cub forum, but I thought it was worth asking given the considerable knowledge base here. What kind of primer was in use on steel tube airframes in the late 1920's? Was zinc chromate around then, or did it come along later? I am getting involved in the restoration of a 1929 Swallow TP and mostly would like to know what color of primer would best resemble the original. We will use a modern epoxy paint for the sake of preserving the tubing, but prefer to have the correct color. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Bill
