I am in the (slow) process of painting the top half of mine OD green. I have used the rattlecan OD from Walmart, did three coats without any issue. The color ended up dead flat. I scuffed the surface before I started, and scuffed between each layer with a 3M scrubbie pad, just to get rid of the individual spray lines. Turned out pretty good so far. I looked at spraying the whole thing with a spray gun and paint by the gallon, but it didn't add up price-wise. YMMV...
