I have a 1958 M37. I'd like to paint it back to the original 1958 color of 24087. However, I'd like to use a more durable paint than the original. I know both Gillespie and Arevoe have the color and spec, but I'm looking for a more durable paint.

Does anyone know the closest match (color ID number, brand, etc) I can use to get some paint mixed locally (New Hampshire)?

FS 595b shows 24084 as close, but I'm not convinced it's close enough. If you have a color in mind and have any info, I greatly appreciate it.

Cheers
RickO
