Finished up another paint project, mobilizer was not repainted just the 280 box.Same wally world paint as the duce.

I picked up a nice shelter for my Duce but the 3 color truck and 1 color desert just did not work for me. At first I was going to go 24087 but decided to go 3 color Nato carc desert. I had printed the out lines from the camo manual, used color pens and didn't like the 686 Tan, 911 black, 383...

A couple pounds of quarters at the local car wash, it had been blasted and repainted by the military 2 years earlier. RAYZER I used a roller on the roof and BTW you are the King of the M146's!

Yep went through 3 gallons on this all Behr satin/semigloss, cut with bottled water and airless sprayer. I was painting over 383 green Carc.

Woodsplinter that is really strange I have been using the house paints for about 7 years now and never had that problem, but I have never used Olympic. I seems like bad luck you should have been able to get the 24087 without matching, all the stores have the FS#'s in their computers but not all...

As far as the military there never was a "CARC" 24087 that I am aware of, now if you want the Behr codes for 24087 this is the one I use and is current. UP Date 4/12/15 Remember a lot of the older posts with Behr #'s on the lids are not true FS they were color matched, so start with a clean...

It finally got still and got it finished a lot of up and down the ladder

24087 Got it right after way too many trips back and forth to HD I think I finally got the Behr 24087. The left half was sprayed with Rapco/Gillespie 24087 , Right was rolled on with Behr Ultra exterior semigloss. Now if this Kansas wind ever dies down, I will be able to start painting my M146...

Still looking for a Behr match #89 (permalink)

Found out why you couldn't get the 383 green. I was at HD the other day trying to get some made, the first guy said " those letters and #'s mean nothing to me, can't make it" I also remembered a post where another ss member could not get it made either. Anyways I waited till an older paint...

maxim what paint/code did you used for the 24087 semi gloss on the M37?

Yep a little water makes it spray much more better. I think some use the airless because the don't all ready have a paint setup and it is cheaper way than compressor, moisture separator, gun.

I went ahead and tried to MERDC my other M890 today. It has been field drab for the last 3 years. I did cheat a little as I used Rapco sand all other 3 colors are house paint, the green should be greener tomorrow.

Ok I used wsucougarx mix for the 383 green, brown and black . My latest M890 was screaming to ditch it's wildland yellow FD paint job and go to 3 color Nato. The yellow paint had been put on by a pro so decided to use it as the base. Had to spend an hour with heat gun and scraper to get the FD...
