Mike,
That came out beautiful. nice job on the details. Keep your eyes peeled for a set of tow bar clamps, I have the same idea for the tow bar storage.

Ok ya all - the new M909 - I am highly considering putting this into Behr paint - but NOT the color anyone else has but something totally off the wall - it would get a full pressure washing near steam to get all the debris off it and then do a little body work as that is all it needs - but then shoot it with the guns in BEHR paint. It will be a while before I can do this but I am and will be looking forward to a challenge - especially in this Georgia weather.

Not Bher but Sherwin Williams, motor pool paint job but came out pretty well.
in prep and paint is mine, painted in September, the other was painted a few months earlier.
We color matched Rustoleum cammo forest green. they were all sprayed except the bed and
insde the drop sides, they were rolled.

np2ij... Do your rain flapper(s) on your exhaust stack allow water in? I put a rain flap from Summit Racing and I am getting rain seepage into the pipe. Any tricks that I'm missing?

Nice truck. 2/506 probably never had a M925 assigned to it if you wanted to be historically accurate LOL. M54, skip a bunch, then maybe an FMTV.

Both trucks came out the AirForce just as seen, i have not seen any issues with water seepage.

np2ij- What type of Sherwin Williams paint did you use? I was going to color match Krylon camo olive drab...

Satin finish industrial like you would find in a park or fire doors in any commercial building. Here is the info.

Has anybody run an HVLP gun off of an M35's air supply? Figured I would need to install a moisture trap at least between the truck and the gun. Thanks
I finally got around to using house paint on some of my equipment. I am repainting my M416, using Ben Moore 34097 from Ace. The color match to the original CARC is amazing, and application could not have been easier: brush it on, then go over it with a small foam roller to eliminate the brush strokes and give it a good texture.
I will post a picture soon.
In the mean time, props to whoever originally thought of using house paint on military vehicles. Whoever you are, you are a friggin' genius!
