TMNT that is a great link and a must read. Much of this has been hashed out I see.

The list above seems to work at Behr and will probably work with at a lot more manufacturers. The key at Home depot is first going to "competitors" and then "Federal Standards" then followed by the FS number of your color. There are many more than the above list, but I think easy access to these would be a good start for most people.

Adam, I too like the black underside. My 925 that was rebuilt by Red River is entirely black below. I especially like it with the tan as a contrast.

Being part of your thread helped me to see a clearer path to fresh paint and Behr samples at low cost. Good luck painting.

Actually I'll be sending you another PM now that I saw this thread.

Patracy, so Steel Soldiers is a trademark and can't be used without some infringement issues. Thanks for your help.

Thus the project at Behr is named "military truck colors" and Steel Soldiers is not mentioned.

Gust got the 12 samples...good $36 investment.

This should be stickies since it has all of the FS paint codes listed in one post on one thread. All the ones that matter to us anyway.
