I have a friend of mine ho owns a paint booth up north of where I live. I was wondering if any of you had an idea of the color code for the mate green the army uses ? I am purchasing an XJ sport when I come back home from vacation, and I expect on getting it repainted, army green!

I'll look for him!

And yes it is, the only thing is that I'm planning on repainting it in a booth, with spray guns! I'll look into krypton to see if they have that color not in rattle cans !

The thing is that where I live, I can't seem to find a shop that paints mate. And less likely to paint army coded colors.
