I have used Aervoe gallons on the same kind of vehicle as you and had the
same result -- HOWEVER when I used forest green on another vehicle it tuned
pink in a few months....As to Gilmore -- I read somewhere that U S Army did
a test and the same number of paint checked at different locations had
noticeable different shads.
Everette
With an increasing admiration of your constancy and devotion to your
country, and a grateful remembrance of your kind and generous considerations
for myself, I bid you all an affectionate farewell.
R. E. Lee, General
General Order number 9
