Well just a note to save others a problem. a couple of years ago i ordered 
a touch up kit from r&r design. and a couple of bottles of paint for my 
Johnson projects. well i did not use the paint and worked on getting a few 
of the project radios fixed then was going to do all the painting at one 
time. today was that day. sad to say every bottle was dryed up. all 15 of 
them. never been opened. so a word to the wise do NOT order these small 
bottles of paint unless you expect to use them with in a couple of months. 
I should have known better but all of my paint that is in glass bottles has 
a long storage life but the plastic bottles that this paint came in did 
NOT. so if you are not going to use if for a long time or just keep as 
touch up paint when a new project is finished I was suggest that you get it 
out of these worthless plastic bottles and into a good glass bottle which 
has an airtight seal.
live and learn oh well what is a 100 bucks worth of paint anyway. hi.. 
going to take it to my local lowes and see if my friend in the paint dept 
can match it up with his new computer.
