    True, protec do make it in gloss, but i've never tried to confirm if they still make it

    Anyway, in gloss it would be pretty close to one of the standard discovery colours!

    I had a bit of an idea last night, using Tangiers Orange on Nato Green, but after spending a while mucking around this morning, I just can't seem to get it to look 'right'.

    I reckon the urban cammo in metallic silver sounds alright

    I was thinking NATO green but can't find a picture anywhere of one.

    Any ideas? All work will be professionally done in a booth etc, no roller and brush experimentation.

    Inspired by Quiggers:

    Glow in the dark!

    Seriously, it is doable - you can mix in the pigments with your paint, and have one colour by day, and another one radiating at night! And if that isn't audacious, then what is?

    Back in the eighties when I was a regular at Oran Park club days, (as a helper for a few drivers) a number of guys had their 'sportscars' painted in dayglo orange or yellow. Bizarre!

    White with big black 'UN' letters on the sides.
