The colour is called Pale Eucalypt from the Taubmans range. I think White Knight might be owned by Taubmans. I originally wanted to use a hammer finish paint to help conceal some of the roughness of the castings but Bunnings didn’t have any green hammer finish paint and the ones they did have couldn’t be tinted, they only came in pre tinted colours. I like the way the rust guard is turning out so a good result in the end. I’ll paint over the yellow stand with the leftover green paint after the lathe is painted.

Wattyl have hammer finish you have to go to their industrial range if you want it tinted, they have a about 15 premixed colours in Hammer finish.
Taubmans and White Night are both owned by American company PPG.
