Interlux Brightside Kingston Grey

It's time to paint the Burro and I'm waffling between the various grey colors on Interlux's site. Specifically, either the Kingston Grey or Steel Grey. The Kingston Grey looks to have a heavy green hue on the website but google searches of boats tagged as Kingston Grey look completely different than the Interlux site. Have any of you used either color and if so, would you mind posting some pics?

How you perceive color on your computer will depend on the light the photo was taken under ( could be early morning or high noon, shadow or bright sun ). It will depend on the camera and settings used and on your monitor and how it is set up.
I would not rely on a picture to make my decision. You need paint chips and need to look at them under different lighting conditions.
Remember that dress that some claimed was gold and some said was blue?

I am right next door to a marine supply store, tomorrow I will see if they have any color chips for those.

steel grey

I have used steel grey (aka Battle ship grey) in my fishing buddies mind. Im not sure that would be a great roof colour as it might get too hot in direct sun.

Looks like your trailer is upside down! Was there an incident?

Smile Go Crazy With Paint

Hi there all!
I bought my 1977 Scamp several years ago and am still happy with the paint combination, which was done by the former owners out of Louisville, KY. The only warning is that everyone will gather to your Scamp upon campground arrival, but what they heck? I do not know what kind of paint but it has lasted for awhile.

Now if you could just figure out how to paint a pear tree on the top half... And you're old like me if you get it!
