Will anyone have any Rapco paint at Aberdeen? I am looking for three SPRAY cans of the lusterless grey.

Why not just order it from RAPCO? You don't pay the hazmat fees on spray cans. The only additional cost you pay is shipping. I have not seen Mark from RAPCO at the Aberdeen shows for at least five years.

Just seeing if any will be at the show. Need a few cans a touch up. I am also looking for different colors to do some other things with.

Plus, if I can save on shipping, I would love that.

I have had Gillespie (RAPCO) paint at Aberdeen several times in the past. I almost organized another group purchase this year (I get Mark to ship it by truck to my office on a regular basis and save on hazmat and shipping cost) for delivery at the show, but I've been too busy to do so.

However, I happen to have a case of Navy Haze Gray in gallons (purchased for a friend's abandoned project). I'll look to see if I have any spray cans left. The gallons are Gillespie, the spray cans (if I still have any) are USMC surplus and are from a different supplier.

I'll be in Yellow U5.

What other colors are you looking for?

If Cabell does not have it then Army Jeep Parts carries it but you might want to call them before the show since I have never seen gray there. They only bring the most common colors unless you call ahead of time.

I cant complain about AJP. They are at 2 of the major MV shows I go to every year, and only 1 day away via UPS Ground shipping..

There are better places than that, to get paint from.
Yes, please tell. I am looking for the spray cans, three, of the "Lusterless Navy Grey".

I am also looking for a darker grey top coat for some sort of "urban" camo look.

Army jeep parts will have it but as was said, they sell out fast. There may be other places to get Gillespie paint but at the show, no hazmat. Yes you pay a little more for it but nowhere what you pay for a hazmat delivery charge.

There was plenty of paint there yesterday, so I think you should be able to get some. No grey, so that sucked.
