Hi Bruce do you know where i can get the hammertone paint for my toe cutter or know anyone who can paint her for me?
I have an export model as well and want to match the red also if the cowling / tank is red too.

You need Avocado green for the old Victa and you should be still able to get it from your local paint shop. woot

Hi,
The paint you need is manufactured by Galmet and as Bruce has said the colour is Avocado green. I know where you can get it in Sydney but am unsure about Brisbane. Best bet is to try the paint shops in the yellow pages and see if they stock Galmet.

Bunnings don't carry Galmet and other hardware shops can be hit or miss.

Regards,
Macvicta
