Also, the CARC paints are not matches to the Cdn colour scheme.
There was an interim Cdn Carc in the 8010-21-980 range if I recall, but it did not see widespread issue, and the eventual CARC paint should have an American NSN, which is in the 8010-01- NSN range. All these numbers are from memory mind you, so take them with a grain of salt.

The only paint I remember seeing in the Paint Lockers at work was definately the IRR paint. Specifically "Forest Green" and "Black". This would probably make it very old by now. Finding some would be pretty easy, finding some that is unopened will be the real challenge.
I don't ever recall seeing any CARC kicking around at work. Seems to me that was all held by 2nd Line and so forth. As our stuff came in refurbed in CARC, we no longer touched it up, although it liked to peel off in big chips.
Who says the memory is the first thing to go eh Rob
