Actually it's a colour called "hosta leaf" unfortunately it's a gloss. It was the closest thing to real OD I could find. The "camoflage" series is not the type for plastics. I wanted the toughest paint I could get so I got the molecular bonding stuff.

I've fixed the shiny surface by adding 5 coats of matte Krylon clearcoat. It's also gotten rid of the tackiness of the paint after handling it bare handed for a while.
