M1078 Troop cover colors?

[MaiNiaK]

I've seen the desert tan and green camo.

Do they make any other color troop covers?
I live in a winter wonderland and would like to find a white or snow camo troop cover. I Would like to paint my truck snow camo.

I've seen two versions OD green (which gets painted Woodland on the unit level) and Sand. But I guess you can have any color of cover you like custom made.

I have NOS white 12' deuce cargo covers but think the sides would not come down far enough. Nobody has a 1078 close to me to check.

There is an arctic one, or should be. But the commonality of it is probably rare. I've sent a message to a NCO who just PCS'd from Alaska asking him, but he's at NTC right now.

Unit's never paint the "canvases" of trucks. But units all the time would order the wrong color canvas.. In my time we only had OD (phased out by Woodland Camo) tan, available for M998, 800/900 and HEMTT. White was also available, but not much call for that in Texas or for our contingency mission...

Thanks for the replies everyone.
Bikeman let me know if you find out anything.

worst case scenario I could try Cool Seal. The white rubber paint they use on rubber RV roofs.
thanks again.

That makes sense, I have a woodland Camo cover that clearly was a OD green and was painted over.

Does the paint stick well and how does it stand up to rolling the sides up?

They've painted it in CARC, it sticks pretty well.

The woodland camo covers are factory painted.
