my rustoleum hunter green

link hasnt been on there long but im very happy w/how the color turned out, i had to cut it down quite a bit to make it shoot "ok" (and "ok" was the best results i could get) out of my paint gun but that could be b/c i dont have a great gun or great compressor, 50/50 paint and thiner was WAY to thin before that i had tried 90/10, 80/20, 70/30
the mix i ended up with was somewhere more than 60 and less than 70% paint with the rest being thinner alot more thinner than the directions said it should be, but it worked for me. i had very few runs and after 3 coats pretty good coverage... i broke my buffer before even waxing one spot the head just came off.... so im still looking forward to seeing what she looks like all waxed up and shinny.

Nason 2k Urethane "Gunmetal Pearl" factory packed color.

Not sure if its still available. I painted this in 1996 if I'm remembering correctly.

The bezel and other trim like the windshield vent is Nason 2k Urethane "Diamond Pearl"

Rustoleum flat black and rustoleum white for the roof and (upside down) bezel. All spray bomb! It was originally freeborn red, but a PO painted it a hideous blue that I had to cover up.

Pics are kinda old, one is from the November 98 issue of 4 wheel sport ute covering the GSMTR, then one on the trail, and one before i put it back together. I painted this 40 about 13 years ago. It is PPG metallic maroon, single stage, don't remember the paint code.

Thanks TRFCSUX! Here's a picture................ Willow Green is the color. It was used by Jaguar in the early 1960's. I'm partial to non-metallic paint on these trucks.
