Ray and list,
About three years ago when I started the process of compiling this information,
I sent out an email to the list asking for input that does exactly what you
suggested. I still am very interested in receiving as many possible
combinations as I can get. I did exactly that on the decal page.
With this said, if any of the members of this list have suggestions for any and
all paint colors (out of the bottle or your special mix), please send me your
suggestions. I have revamped the pages that are on the current site to include
many of Marshall's decals. I would be happy to share this new document (it is
an Excel Spreadsheet) with anybody on the list. I am not proficient in
FrontPage so as a result I am challenged to convert this file to an HTML file
that can be uploaded. If anybody is willing to give me a hand with this
process, we can get this new information loaded on the website.
Thanks for bringing this up again Ray, I would like to make this section on our
site even better.
Regards,
Tom Koch

Subject: Re: [BRHSlist] Paint blend for F units
Gerald, you just opened pandora's box again, but that's what this is all
about. If you look at our web site, under "Modelers Depot", the paint shop
lists "MF #165-16193 CB&Q Imitation Aluminum", however, you will now receive
a lot of discussion on other paints from grey to white to aluminum.
As a suggestion to Tom Koch, manager of "Modeler's Depot Paint Shop" located
on the BRHS web site: Maybe you should list the other "suggested" greys and
whites as alternatives for Q F units. This way, a modeler can decide which
one best suits his or her models.
