Paint options

[chico1]

Just bought a M101...It looks a bit roughed up , and peeling. Any recommendations on the type or brand of paint to use. I wanted to keep it military looking..

Check out RAPCO paint you can get 383 green/brown carc substitute paint and 911 flat black in a rattle can or gal. for a spray gun. Iam about to paint my Cucv and i have a M101 trailer on the way. Also do a search on here and they may have more options and pictures.
Good luck

You want the texture and flatness of CARC without paying out the ear? Sorry but Gillespie paint sold by guys like Rapcoparts is pretty glossy for "flat" paint IMHO. Check out my 1968 M35A2 link below in my signature. Haha, yes it is Behr Paint sold at your local Home Depot Don't let "household" paint fool you or think less of this paint. This stuff is tough.

Can you buy it in gallon cans? How does the green and brown match up to the Mil-spec paint colorwise?

Painting my deuce right now with Behr. The color and the texture looks just like CARC
