UBB.threads Forums General Interest Restoration, Conservation, and Maintenance Forum NPEA leader Scabbard needs paint

Hi,
I have a NPEA chained leader dagger and someone has cleaned the scabbard to the metal. I would like to repaint the scabbard. Does anyone know who can paint it or where I can get the paint to have it done.

Thanks

If you have a sample, you can match it at a good hobby shop. Use a flat enamel. I believe ModelMaster 1911 Olive Drab is a close match.

Vern,
Thanks for the info. Unfortunately there is absolutely no paint left on the scabbard Apparently someone thought it was a SA and didn't like the green color???

Thanks again

Blademan :

Don Swanson did my NPEA, which was down to maybe 40% paint left. He did a magnificent job. It was not cheap, $200- and that was three years ago, but again the quality is there. I went through Tom Wittmann, as he has a good line of communication with Don. Hope this helps.

I've used Don as well, he does good work.
