Ex army charcoal suits.

TOP TIP

Like we used to do on exercise.. cut the charcoal lining out easy to do , your left with a quality realy lightweight overjacket, you can scrumple into a pocket not waterproof but good cammo.

Good old squaddies trick...we just used to leave the hood bit in so you couldnt tell...brings back some memories...but a lot more comfy than 3 days covered in hot sweaty graphite poo

Hello to All,

I had a Dutch NBC suit/jacket set, and found it to be an excellent over-jacket/over-trousers - very warm !

Before use, I turned them inside out, and had at them in a bucket with warm soapy water to get most of the loose carbon off.

When dry, a good brushing of the carbon surface with a stiff bristle scrubbing brush removed most of the remaining 'crap'.

As I wore the suit over my outdoor togs, I was never bothered by black-smudges.

Have fun & a good weekend

Best regards

Russ
