Hi, folks,

I have a complete AK-5 speaker which needs a refinish job. Someone
decided it would look better in an ugly shade of gray. Fortunately,
they/he removed the plastic Heathkit nameplate and I have that
intact!

Question is...what shade of green is it supposed to be? I could use
Lynn, N0ALO's paint. And, what color is the speaker grille supposed
to be? It got painted, too...I bet the grille should be just brushed
aluminum, not painted, but I am not certain.

I'd like to strip and repaint it to go with my Mohawk and I want to
the job right. So, what color should I get from Lynn???

73,
