Default Matt paint

I have mentioned this before, a good prospect for finding matt paint is modern external house paint , it is usually water based and it's freely available in hardware stores .

Haymes make a matt external house paint that may be of use for that authentic patina look on a military vehicle . It's called solarshield or similar and they guarantee it for 20 years on a house . It can be applied directly onto galvanized iron , it' s self priming . They have it available in four grades of sheen from dead flat to shiny . Mike
