I too pondered the NATO green but have seen so many lately.
been pondering about a matt grey colour, either the sea grey or battleship grey. Matt black looks good. But I have phobia with black vehicles.
With regard to paint application I was also pondering using the spray gun that came with...
If you search flea bay, you can get one for about £40
I would have put the link on, but the one I got recently have all sold out.
I have been doing the same process. After you have steam cleaned. You can get the stubborn bits off with some jizer
im confused...:confused: (which is not hard)
The more i read the harder decision its turning out to be.
Not doing a full nut and bolt strip as the rear tub is still on. So a galvanized chassis is out of the question
