UBB.threads Forums Uniform & Accessories Helmet Forum SS champagne runes

Hi Fred.. Maybe I'm misunderstanding [and don't know what XRFacts is].. They are saying: the postwar airbrushed on SS runic decals have the copper in them.

So,,all 3rd reich era helmet emblems were lacquer type applied on decals, all branches of service etc. No 3rd reich era emblems were airbrushed .

We really, from what I understand, don't know when these things accurately started popping up but when ever it was for sure postwar. A percentage of copper being in the paint would be fine.
What I don't understand is a collector/expert couldn't tell the difference between a decal applied on and airbrush sprayed. [?]
