Gas bottle question. Difference between green and blue?

[IPA]

Hello, can anyone tell me if there is any difference between green and blue? I'm asking as regulator that I used on blue bottle doesn't see to fit on the green bottle?

Thanks in advance

The regulator is interchangeable twixt blue & green, price the same set by the government, the only difference being the open carry handle holes at the top, blue 2 either side, green 1 in the middle of the cylinder.

Gas inside each also the same - or so the guys who deliver the gas tell me. Difference in colour is the difference in company!

I thought it was jet koop or inter
Dark green lime green and blue
But agree all should use the same regulator

[thornaby]

As said, same gas , different supplier {as per the water bottles), regulators are a standard fitting, again as per the water bottles the shops will change like for like!

13roman58 - Found this exciting bit of information: Can I use WD40 on a propane tank?
Spray down the valve with some WD40. While it penetrates, dig 2 holes next to each other. One for u, one for the tank.

Remember that WD40 is NOT a lubricant it is a water displacer, don't use it on things that you SHOULD lubricate with oil but it is good for cleaning all sorts of things - not guns!!!!

Put washing up liquid round the top of the gas bottle valve it makes it easier to fit the regulator.
