matt paint
Hello
The Cold War Collection in the Ottawa area uses water based paints exclusively, which are all matt.
I have also been told that the automotive water based paint comes flat and that it is the clear coat on top which makes it shinny.
There is also a flat clear coat which can be applied on top of the matt paint. Do not know if it will work on top of shinny oil based paint.
I will see if I can get a make, source and approx. price.
If you need semi gloss/gloss oil based paints you can still get them from Home Hardware.
They matched my M38A1 CDN2 paint from an original part. There is some dust on top and it is a little shinier than the original but it will dull once outside. This is a very close match to the Aervoe semi-gloss Olive Drab. I will have to look up the can number when I am back with the jeep.
Eric
