07BE16 Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 If you are talking about the 1970's green BCF type you can obtain decals to replace the original printed data from https://www.101parts.co.uk/shop/body-and-fittings/chassis-plates/fire-extinguisher-sticker/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G506 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Slightly off on a tangent, apologies, does anyone know when these BCF extinguishers started appearing? My 1962 109" has one fitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07BE16 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 See picture of extinguisher with 101 parts 'decal' The decal does tend to 'scuff' under the clamp but it is not visible when assembled. Also the 'decal' is vinyl so you can see the edge of it if you look closely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REME 245 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Presumably now illegal to discharge and useless on the occasion I tried to use one on a Ferret Carburettor Fire. They need to be used in an enclosed space such as the interior of a AFV to build up a layer of gas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
