Spray Can Sahara Tan??

Eastwood has a flat tan paint as well, but not in a can. Wondering how well it would match. Paintscratch.com should be able to mix it up as well, I almost went that route.

The Mopar paint cans are small

It took 2 of them just to do the fronts of 5 wheels.

My vote is for the rustoleum sand as well. It is much more "camel" color than in the pics and would look great on an LJ! (mine in the future)

We used it on our TJ's Jerry cans:

I used the Rustoleum Almond to cover the primer on my M100 trailer build. I started spraying the Mopar Sahara Tan 5 oz spray cans and it wasn't covering that well. So I did two coats with the Almond in satin for coverage and then got a decent coat out of the three 5 oz cans of Sahara Tan. The Almond was nice because it was a hair lighter, allowing me to see if I was getting coverage on the top coat.

I was just going t pull up the pic you posted in my trailer thread haha, about hoew the Gloss Almond or Almond from rustoleum are almost a perfect match.

Man I'm trying to decide what to do on mine currently as well. Its colorado red currently. Jeep dealerships don't carry & can't get that color anymore. So I'm gonna see what my options are..if I should pay 350 per gallon for it, plus reducer & hardener, primer ect. I also thought of maybe having someone mix up the paint but wouldn't I need the paint code for this?
Or if I should rattle can my jeep desert tan or white. Its a hard decision lol.

That's just...SICK! Me likey!!!!!!!!! :) But I'd suggest going with semi gloss on the trim paint. Seems to hide fingerprints better and may not fade out as well...maybe.?. Can't wait for the build thread!

Here ya go, jeepdreamer. Semi-gloss it is! You were right, it does hide fingerprints better, and the contrast with the gloss tan is nice too. Thanks.
