The Salmson uses horizon blue RAF wires. I had an idea on coloring these. I am going to cut my pieces of Sullivans elastic and dye these in blue dye. Hopefully I can determine how long to let them sit to get the shade correct-ish.
Using dye may be the way to go as painting prior to attachment would have the paint flake off as the material is stretched. painting after attachment will require a steady hand and post-it notes to mask the wings.
I wonder if there is a silver or grey dye for RAF wire?
