Bill,
My TW spring and bracket are white as that part of the fuselage is white.
We wanted to keep the TW the same color as the fuselage. The TW bracket
really shows the grease. If I were to repaint, I would try to make that
part of the plane a dark color. Black will definitely not show the grease.
Grass on the gear is okay, just don't bring home some wire wrapped around
the plane (as my cousin did in his crop spraying days).

"Besides, a plane without any scratches or paint chips is never flown
and must be a museum piece."
I like that Mike and it reminds of a comment my A&P said about why he
liked working on my T-Craft. "It was the only plane at the airport that
he had to pull the weeds out of the gear so he could service the
bearings. I know you are enjoying flying it."
As for the paint vs. powder coat issue. I'm not worried about it
matching as I'm just going to paint it black and don't expect it to
match.

Wire strikes and crop dusting seem to go hand-in-hand.
The grass I was bringing back was from all the sod strips I could find,
not buzzing farm fields. Although for some sick reason, I have always
wanted to try my hand (foot?) at crop dusting.
