Dayamn! Gotta find me some olive drab flat or satin and go for it myself!

Once the rust repair is caught up of course.....

Not the olive drab satin finish I'd prefer, but I'd say pretty damn close.

Great thread!

So for those in the know, is it possible to take your paint code into Home Depot and ask them to match it? I've been trying to get my HJ60 paint - Dark Metallic Blue (Paint code: 8B4) for the longest time and short of asking a paint shop, I can't get it anywhere else economically.

I just need to touch up some rusty spots that I've ground down and fixed with primer.

Not that I know, but from looking at their paint equipment, I highly doubt it. Automotive paint types are not their specialty. It might be worth getting a quart from a real paint shop so you can match it right, paint a whole panel if need be.
