    Durability question

    No problem. I'm just trying to spread the word about this paint. I have been using it for years and it is great stuff, and cheap! Looks like your truck is either CARC 383, or Marine Corps forest green. I can pick up a pint, quart, or gallon of whatever color you need whenever you need it, of...
