I did find that M217 is for Hot Tin Dip. I got that from an ex-NASA employee and a shop in California.
Thanks...

LOOKING FOR PAINT SPEC P510.2N

A. Hi Michael; more words please :-)

You want to obtain the spec (it's not a spec, it's just a code within spec MIL-14072), or you want someone to process parts for you to that spec, or you want to buy the paints & processes?

... or you want guidance on what "P510.2N" is supposed to mean?
Table I of MIL-DTL-14072 says that "P510.2" means MIL-DTL-5541 chromate conversion coating of aluminum, followed by MIL-PRF-23377 [⇦ this spec on DLA] primer. The "N" might mean color black semi-gloss MIL-PRF-22750 topcoat per the list of abbreviations in Table II, but I don't know whether the convention is to just append an "N" to the code that way or not.

Luck & Regards,
