C-85 685 #7 Posted February 6, 2021 We had good luck changing our M35 from this - To this - I got the patterns from examples of several other trucks and a chart showing the paint pattern. The green in CARC 383, FS 34094, the brown is FS 30051, and flat black is FS 911. FS = Federal Standard. Good luck with the paint job! C-85 2 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But got stuff to do could have anything to do about anything from plowing snow to treating toenail fungus. So that one is on the description by the original poster. anyway, good luck on the SSSSSSSSSSTT SSSSSSSST SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSTT 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just so we can see how far we've strayed off topic, right? I look at my "Notifications", right click, "open in new tab" those I should follow up on. Then the same for "New Content" and by then I might have 10 new tabs open. It's a wonder that I keep track of any of them! Perhaps I'm not... Where was I? Oh! Good idea! A Topic Heading! Or Thread Title! I like it! Wonder if that is possible? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,764 #19 Posted February 6, 2021 What kind of beer are you going to drink before and while painting?? I recommend Stevens Point or Killian's Red beer...especially when painting camouflage. The idea being...once it is painted you can't see it and then you won't be able to find it. Then, the next day, while picking up the empty beer cans, you will bump into it. Boom-sha-ka-lac-a !!! On a side note, if you decide to paint it Battleship Grey, it would look great on blue Astro Turf...like they use on the football fields in Alaska. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, this is important anyway. I'm a fan of Killians but I'm completely unfamiliar with Stevens Point. Local perhaps? Oh! The topic! Paint colors! How about these? 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
