The paint should be the same inside as the green on the outside. There is a federal standard for the colour which is found here http://remlr.com/forum/index.php?topic=1659.0

Hi Rod, thanks for your reply,
I post this as I feel mine and my mates internal colour is different to outside ( could be wrong due to detailers shinning things up ), are you certain in your reply, or just a hunch.

Cheers

Hi,

I have two perenties, one has original green on outside the same as inside, the other has been resprayed with a different green on the outside, its a lighter colour.

Protec camo green is close to original but not perfect but best there is that i am aware of.

Hope that helps

Regards
Scott

Scott & Bruce
The difference in colour would be due to different paint and paint suppliers and contracts, there is a difference in the colour of Polyurethane (PUP) and Enamel hence why vehicles are different colours. The lighter green as Scott mentioned has faded to the lighter colour, my vehicle is the lighter green and when you roll up the canopy there is a line where the paint was covered which is not faded. I suspect the paint did not have enough uv scavengers in it and it may have something to do with the NIRR properties of the paint as it seems that the ones painted in PUP are the ones that are faded.

Most originals were, if I am not mistaken, painted in Two Pack paint, which has it's own hazzards.  from memory the green is similar to the protec one, but seems a little more glossy?

The Protek Green is likely the closest match you will get, but it doesn't take a lot to repaint the entire interior.
