I went to a great military surplus store in Buzzards Bay Massachusetts called " Bananas" It was called "Gone Bananas" not sure what happened. Well the whole point was that I was looking around and found out that they sell paint too. They have a few different kinds of spray cans. One is close to CARC green and the other is close to the Olive Drab. I was checking out what they contain. Most are enamels with all the good stuff in them, not this watered down crap they sell now. Another thing I found was "Mobile paints" Jack Tar marine finishes "Camouflage ducking skiff olive" It is a Alkyd Enamel semi flat. I put some on some shiny white cardboard and it covered awesome and looks like a good color too. I would like to flatten it out some more and paint my truck. I know this stuff will cover and stick. It is only 35.00 a gallon and the color looks close to the Rapco USMC Olive Drab.
I am going to talk to my Sherwin Williams dealer about hardner and a flattening agent. They have a wood and metal black that is a enamel and I will use the hardner and flattening agent in that too.
