CARC 3 Color Subsitutue

[mikes]

Guys This may have been asked before if so I aplogize in advance. I bought a trailer which is in great shape but I would like to freshen up the paint. I don't want to go the Normal channels for CARC paint. I looking for suggestions for Over the counter Rattle cans colors that are close to the 3 camo colors. Any Help would be appreciated. TIA Mike

I did my whole truck in Gilespie paint from Rapco parts. I buy the 383 CARC substitute in rattle cans by the case. I have yet to find anything else that matches even close.

I really like the Gilespie paint from Rapco. If you don't mind using cans they work pretty good. The only down side to gallons is that you have to pay haz-mat shipping.

Here's the link www.rapcoparts.com

The Gillespie paint from RAPCO is pretty good stuff. The green matches fairly well, however it is WAY too GLOSSY for my liking. The 383 Brown matches fairly well. Now the Gillespie black is something to be avoided. It's more glossy than flat. This can be remedied by going to Home Depot and buying chalkboard paint in the rattle cans. It looks just like CARC black

I once did a truck in Walmart Krylon camo paint. The green is good, so is the brown (although it is darker than CARC tan) but I used Rustoleum flat black instead of the Krylon.

Thanks guys for the feedback I guess I will go the Rapco route after all. Mike
