    I have a couple of Optimus 8R stoves. I just saw a Radius #46 which is very similiar, but not Identical like the primus 8R. Are they very rare?

    And I have a Little Injun Scout stove. How rare are these?

    Also is there a place I can buy some Blue Optimus paint to restore a well used 8R?

    In UK Ford Cosmos Blue (automotive) is a good match but I don't know what the US/Can. equivalent is.
    Probably something like Ford Cosmos Blue, who knows?

    Check out Hammerlite?s colours, I think they were painted with hammerlite originally...

    Most of the #46's I've seen come out of Sweden or Norway - darn sight rarer than the Optimus 8R!
