Re: RLM 81/82 – More secrets unveiled
It doesn't matter how good the bar story is: 1+1 does not equal 3 and aircraft paints were specialist products applied when authorised under controlled (and inspected) conditions. There were some pretty poor paints used in WW2: I could mention the RAF's Special Night RDM2, or the Luftwaffe's night distemper, but these were all authorised issues for use according to orders. Aircraft were not painted with tractor paint, sports car paint, or naval wooden deck stain, just on the whim of junior officers or otherwise-unemployed airmen.
