Thanks for the paint info!!!!

just wanted to thank the guys that took the time to answer my newby question about paint for my M101A1

I went w/ the 383 carc formula from Home Depot and started painting last night

At first I was a little spooked at the "vivid" green color when first put on but when I woke up and checked it it had darkened to a nice color.

And it was fun.....cant wait for another trailer to paint

Thanks again!!!!!!!

Thanks for the interlink to other posts and threads, maybe this is a skill we can all try to interlink to all the thousands of threads ? Might be a great idea to consider, and may decrease a bit of the frustrations that we all bang up against here lately !


My attempt to be constructive and a part of the solution, instead of the problem !

I'm glad I was able to help out My 1968 restoration project is by far my favorite project to date. That Behr paint was not only very affordable but it's local to many and really looks great!. That's the biggest benefit to this site. Everyone is always willing to help each other out and share their "lessons learned". I too was in my MV infancy and this site really helped me out. All these threads I make are to give back to the SS.
