I would like to paint my TJ od green. I've started looking, and I have found many shades of od green. I followed a link provided for paints from another thread here. But the paint offered in od green listed is a choice of at least ten variations.
I know the shade of the color in my mind I want, but I don't know what it's called.
So does anyone have a name of their paint and a picture they can share with me here?
That way I will know what paint and what it's called to buy. I'm looking at rattle can paint.
I've found that what most people consider as the "typical" shade of OD paint is Army shade code 33070. Here is a good link that explains most of the military paint codes: https://www.armyjeepparts.net/t-GCI_paint.aspx
When I first painted my trailer a couple of years ago, I used Krylon paint I picked up from my local Ace hardware store. It is a bit darker and more porous than the Gillespie paint, you can see the difference between my Jeep and trailer.
I like the shade 33070 and besides it looking better it matches well with other paints. Here is a pic of my tub during my restoration. I painted the floor with tinted Monstaliner and you can see it matches almost perfectly.
Thanks, it was your link on another thread that I followed before posting my question. I'm not doing a military jeep. I just like the od green I see on some jeeps. One said krylon olive green. Some just said od green. I looked at your rapco link and became throughly confused. I never dreamed there was so many greens called od green. So I ordered a catalog. I hope it will have a true color chip chart with it.
Thanks for the link.
