Compass restoration by
[email protected]
I was given a pair of compasses to rebuild which seemed pretty
straight forwards until I got to the point of having to repaint the
body.
Does anyone know what paint is used? Or something that
does not react with mineral oil or purified kerosene?
Thanks

federal expiration date? Is it still flyable? Is it ok to use for parts...
