Hi
Me again
I think I've gone off the matt black idea and onto a matt army green. I was looking for army green buses on the samba and found this beuty. Thinkin I might do something similar, but how would I get a color like it? Any idea if this is matt or satin?
Cheers
Simon
P.s had a very busy day and almost ready to paint!!! Lots of hard work done!

That looks sweet!!!

looks more satin to me

Yeah I love it - though I might go slightly more towards an army colour as I also wanted to put 2 1/2 inch white walls and posibly red rims (but don't think the red would go with this green quite?)

Looks like our old bus which was Martini Olive green.

flat----------->matt---------->lowsheen------------>satin----------->semigloss------------->gloss

It is all a big blurr really and there are a lot of inbetweens.

Hey Helbus Do you have any oics of the old bus?

Here is an old pic I dug up and scanned

That was Fleur back in her hippy days, along with my brother with genuine rips in his pants because they were about 5 years old.

oh yeah lovin the hippy thing! Gotta be one of the nicest hippy buses I've seen!! v. nice!

Do you just rock up to a paint shop with a laptop and photo, or do u need paint codes or?

Found this nice army rat on the forum (the lower section colour) - would like to know the colour also

A paint shop will have satin army green colour on their system. You can have a look through their colour chart boks and see if there is anything else then that interests you also.
