I got Wall-E the LMTV painted

[Andyrv6av8r]

I sprayed the underside Wednesday, outside Green Friday and the Black and Brown yesterday. It came out very well and many thanks to TruckGuy(Keith) for the assistance with the camo patterns. I plan to have it in our yearly Christmas parade next Sunday for our church group. I used 4 gallons of Green, A half gallon of black and about a pint of brown Behr paint.

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I'm very pleased with it.

I used a Wagner Flexio 690; I love this gun. I actually have another 1078 to paint real soon for our local VFD as their brush truck.

Good looking paint job

Very nice!

what is the color code for the green you used

The Green is actually a mixture of 383 Green and a color match from Rust-Oleum Deep forest Green. I mix them 50-50 and it comes out just a tad darker than the 383. 2 gallons of each mixed did the truck and it takes considerably more when going from tan to green. It also makes touchup almost perfect if needed with the spray paint.

Great looking paint job! Also, thanks for the follow up info on your green paint mixture. I really like the looks of it. Thankfully, mine already has a good camo paint job.
