Go to Protec, Airds Road Minto (same road as Greysonline, but other side just after the LH turn) they sell by the can and are only a little bit further away from Toongabbie than Hornsby.  They are also cheaper than a reseller.

Interior paint
« Reply #21 on: June 11, 2014, 09:07:16 AM »
Does anyone know what the paint code/type is that is used on the INSIDE of the Perenties?
Is it the same green as the outside, but in a slightly gloss finish?
My interior is certainly not flat matt, but it's not gloss either.

Same colour.  Probably just hasn't faded from being exposed like the outside.

If I had read this thread yesterday 16/6/14 I could have looked up sticky tag on the firewall (engine side) of the 5 I looked at at Grays in Brisbane  :(

Went to Protec today at Gilman in SA and picked up 6 spray cans of paint (2 of each color but no light tan in stock) for $80. Staff were great and there was no min quantity required to purchase.

Hello all. I have just received some cans of protec paint by courier from protec @ Minto. About $12 per can and about $10 del. fee. No can
limit, credit card over the phone but you must be at home to sign for the goods otherwise they will not leave them. Good service and prompt delivery. Regards Jim.

I picked up some cans of spray today at Protec in Dandenong in Melbourne.  I grabbed two Green, two black but they told me that the Tan colour doesn't come in spray only 4ltr paint tins.  Question :  where is the Camouflage Brown used vs Tan on the camp colour scheme ?  The Brown comes in a spray can.

Looks like I may have answered my own question re Brown vs tan.  It appears from the Remlr pages that the Brown is the standard part of the Auscam and the Light tan is only used in the updated Iraq/Afganistan schemes.  What confused me was that the brown/tan colour on my senior commander ,must have faded considerably as it looks like tan rather than a darker brown,  one has the standard Green/Black/Brown scheme.

Yes, many at the auctions have had significant fading of all of the colours.
