Jason,
first of all I compliment you on your choice of paint make, secondly on your
choice of colour!
I only use Tekaloid myself (every couple of years or so!) and can tell you
that it was originally developed in the UK for painting commercial
vehicles - you may have noticed when using it before that it dries to a good
gloss without having to buff it.
So in the US why not look around for a commercial vehicle painting place and
ask them what they use? Of course they may not do a Deep Bronze Green, but
worth a try?
Best Cheers
Reverend Frank

English, living in Houston, so I don't know my way around that well. I used
"Tekloid" that I got from a LR dealer in the U.K. when I lived there, but I
can't find anywhere that has something similar. Atlantic British and many
other parts houses don't sell it due to federal shipping regulations, and
I'm about to go nuts tring to find it locally.

finish. I'm not about to get carried away spraying, I just want to brush it
on. I came across a recommendation for Sterling LP, but I can't find the
paint company, www.sterlingpaint.com doesn't work.
