Matt Paint availability?

This is the McDonald and White SCC2 paint. It's labeled as an industrial enamel. But the label with the paint code says it's acrylic enamel. It is dead flat, dries quickly and covers well. It does need a good primer under it otherwise water will wick through it.

I hope you stocked up. I was in Windsor last weekend only to discover McDonald & White no longer sells that paint (new government regulations) and why I started this thread. It's disappointing...Geoff Bottoms had them match it from one of my original SCC2 parts and it was a great matt paint in the right colour for the right price.

Yup I stocked up a number of years ago with KG#3 and SCC2.

I'm wondering if we would be able to convince the people who make the jeep colours to make some Cnd colours?

I talked with Mark from Rapcoparts at one of the conventions about this. He said that with a minimum 50 gallon order, he would make up whatever colour in the Gillespie paint that we wanted.

Wouldn't it be nice if POR-15 company figured out there are 10,000 collectors who would use their product as a base coat if they made it in either khaki or semi gloss olive green.

Rob....It's not the problem of getting the paint made....it's deciding on what all of us agree on is the right shade of "olive drab green"!

My 2 cents! Robert
