Carriages will be painted with a 5 mill thickness rust inhibitive paint and two coats of alkyd oil base enamel in olive drab (representing what would have been wood components) and gloss black paint (on parts which would have been iron on original gun carriages). The finished carriage shall be capable of supporting the weight and size of the specific tube it is designed for. No substitution of materials and/or design shall be made without the prior approval of the contracting officer.
