Keith was a close friend of Steve Bennet. The KR that Keith built was finished 
as a P51 if my memory serves me correct.

KR> Paint

KR group

This is not exactly about the KR line of planes, but as I follow this group 
regularly I find lots of good ideas…  I have a problem with paint.  Am building 
a Loehle 5151 and will finish the inside and all metal parts in Olive Drab 
paint color…  I now find that that color paint is no longer available in spray 
cans, only in quarts or gallons… I have many little parts that is not worth the 
effort to load up a paint system for a few squirts…  was wondering if there is 
anyone that knows of or has the capability to put paint into the spray cans…. 
the paint is available but not in cans….   Thanks for any info…  jw
