Does anyone know anything about the old 2 gallon fuel cans and in particular what colours they would have been originally?
I have a 1937 Shell Aviation Spirit Can, that I have just had bead blasted and I want to re-paint it as it would have been. I have been told that it may have been painted gold originally but I can't find anything to confirm.
There are many of these type of cans around that have just been painted whatever the owner thought.
I also have two others to restore so any help would be much appreciated.
