color matching
 
im wondering if there is an existing rattle can color that would be a close
enough match to the current jeep khaki to pass off as a "matching" color. i
want to paint a trailer to match my jeep.
thanks,

Watch it. Someone will yell "Google!" at you. Not me, I'm curious to
hear your results.

There are always the duplicolor types, but aren't they just a tad
on the overpriced side? You can also buy genuine US Military
Offishul Khaki spray paint... or just buy Krylon or Rustoleum
which is what we used in the army.

To make it trewly kewl, he should spray coarse sand at the
wet paint to give it that official military texture as well....

im not worried about the cost really, so much as i am ensuring a close
match. since in not moving until next may/june anyway im going to start
hauling welding equipment around with my jeep and a matching trailer color
(and even equipment) can make a "first impression" difference.
thanks lon,

Well the simple thing here is to find a nice big deep mud hole and drive you
J**P through it doing about 60 mph with the trailer connected... the
ensuing splash and "shlup" of spraying mud should cover about 70% of the
trailer, repeat until it has that look you want, then don't ever wash it
again.. :-)
