    My first green restoration required a trip to a local car paint shop to get a colour match paint made up. I took my 22 as it has a good original paint finish for them to scan. They did a great job on matching colour although you don't get the 'hammerite' finish of the original paint of course.
    I've painted a heat strip under the burner in a more heat resistant paint good to 500°C. Either that or I've given it a go faster stripe. This is my first 111 with the large stamped logo on the lid.
