None of the 'extra' stuff that I purchased in the early 1960s is blox. Only those things have I an accurate date of purchase,

I do not know when blox started.

I previously concluded it was a SS Inc. thing.

Are there any Rustoleum colors that match the Greenie's colors? Duckman

Hammered Silver and Hammered Verdi Green

This is Mickyd's restoration

Unfortunately the hammered verde green seems to no longer be available!

Depending on where you are located, it may or may not be available. It is available locally in my area. You may be able to order it. I have had the store ship other things to my son before when he lived in Virginia.

I based my comment on the 'detail' that it is no longer listed on the rustoleum web page. There has been confusion regarding it's availibility depending upon the retailer in the past.

P.S. "Deep green" is darker than "Verde Green".

They are showing it on the corporate page, I had thought it was gone too (Rustoleum Canada dropped it years ago)
(top right sample in the chip grid) https://www.rustoleum.com/product-catal ... ered-spray

For some reason the link defaulted to the first color shown. If you look at all the colors available, it is listed, just click on the color wanted.

On the Menards link, click on "View All" Verde Green is second to last

Although not the correct shade of green, Verde Green is the closest Hammered Finish Paint color to the original "Greenie" paint. It is what I used on the restoration below along with Hammered Finish Silver.
For those repainting their headstock and wanting the CAUTION sticker next to the switch it can be replaced by the stickers I made attached below. It is a JPG picture and should be printed on a full 8-1/2" x 11" clear label sheet. Use the sticker with the correct page number to match your old sticker or if missing already the Owners Manual for your era Mark 5 it references. Although most of the text in the different Owners Manuals for the Greenie's and Goldie's was the same the warning showed up on different pages.
