Following on from the camo threads here, in typical Blue Peter fashion, here's one I sprayed earlier. It's a standard lock & lock container but I gave it a couple of grey undercoats followed by two coats of acrylic camo colours; meadow green, laurel green and brown. The colours haven't come out too well in the photo's but I think it looks pretty good in the flesh...

I did a similar thing with some plastic peach jars but I used Lesonal 1K plastic primer http://www.hex.co.uk/tds/Lesonal/Technical%20Data%20Sheets/Compliant%20Products/1KPlasticPrimer_TDS.pdf after keying the plastic with a green scouring pad .

They look really good. I had trouble finding any khaki colours or matt spray paint, so my box has a bit of a sheen. I placed it in my garden as a test and it still hides well, out of direct sunlight, thankfully.

I had custom colour aerosols made at a local car body and paint suppliers and they were cheaper than off the shelf halfords products . The lesonal was from the same place its the primer they use to prepare plastic bumpers and things .
