I don't know exactly how long ago, as it was before my time, but apparently the base for hammertoe used to be made in the alkyd plant where I work, the old tank for it only got taken out a couple of years back. When things used to need painting, or if someone wanted some for home, I've heard they'd take a keg down, run out some of the base and then pop into the pigment plant and get what colour they wanted...
