specialty spray paints

im looking for some certain colors in spray can form. olive, pearl, etc. i want to have a better selection. i dont like those little hobby cans because the paint sucks, sprays out way too much and i just dont like it. im mostly looking for rustoleum and other well known brands. homedepot doesnt have em. anybody know where i can find these?

right now im looking at army surplus places for olive.

Have you checked out a good local hunting shop? Hunter specialitys used sell a camo pack of spray paints and I believe olive was one of them. Also check out wallyworld they sell krylon and I bought a olive color there once.

http://www.krylon.com/paint/ps_color_card.asp
click "select color card"

http://www.rustoleum.com/


if ya find something you like get a stock/order # and bring it to the closest paint supplier.

if not you can always have any color/ shade mixed but you would have to find a application method (ie: airbrush)

hope it helps

I'v also seen the Rustoleum "camo line" of paints at Walmart.
With hunting season here, it shouldnt be to hard to find it>

Pearl paints

Hey Christian - Go down the road to Sears and buy the "Make It Pearl" spray cans. They have a few different pearl colors.
