105mm Howitzer projectile "Adhesion Test"
- Thread starter Gspragge
- Start date
Upon removing the manky tape but saving the label These patches
of fine cuts into the paint surface were revealed. I guess this was to
see if the paint held or flaked off. Maybe the projectile was subjected to
heat and cold also ? I presume the mortar projectile has similar cuts under the tape.
