Summary for boeing spec paint 14-78-3-707 Discussion
The focus keyphrase here is Boeing spec paint 14-78-3-707. Robert Szabo asked what the paint specification 14-78-3-707 actually is, saying the only reference he had was Boeing Co., Seattle, and that he wanted to buy it locally instead of through Boeing. Frank Aerdelman replied that he was working on a Boeing manual revision for a retractable landing light and had encountered the same question while correcting the consumables list. He identified Part Number 14-78-3-707 with CAGE Code 81205 as The Boeing Company, Division Defense Space & Security, and gave an alternate/reference part number of PA567 (Grimes). He also listed the Boeing spec as BMS 10-60 Type II, Color # BAC 707, gray, gloss finish, polyurethane enamel, flexible, air dry. Frank noted he would ensure the Boeing spec was added to the manual list, implying the thread is about identifying the equivalent specification rather than a separate mystery product.
Q. Hello,
I have a requirement to have Paint with the specification;
14-78-3-707. I cannot find this spec anywhere and the only reference I have is that is supplied by Boeing Co, Seattle, WA. I would rather purchase it from a local supplier, rather then from Boeing. Could you please identify this spec paint as to what exactly it is, so I can purchase it local. Thanks.
Rgs,

A. Hello!
I’m working on doing a revision to a Boeing manual right now (for a Retractable Landing Light) and saw your question.
I’ll see if I can give you some of what I’ve got here, I had the same question when trying to correct the consumables list in this manual.

You may be using a manual right now that I’m applying the correction to. I’ll make sure the Boeing Spec makes it into the list (since it doesn’t look like it’s there at the moment).
