New find: Aktenkasten - Druckvorschriften

[Grenadier1982]

Hello,

yesterday I got this nice Aktenkasten for only 10 Euros in Austria. It was a barn find with some other ammunition boxes.

It need a little bit restauration. What do you think which colour should I use?

Best regards
Stephan

any color you use destroys the history of the item. Clean it and put a film of Owatrol oil on the metal parts and leave it as it is.

So I decided not to repaint it. I tried to clean the metall parts vom rust. than I put a film of oil on it.
