I'm new here so apologies if this has been dealt with before!
I have a 1984 ex-Army Series III 88" soft top in pretty original condition which means layers of hand-painted green.
I'm putting right a back-log of maintenance and need to touch up the paintwork and would like to know what shade of green is right, and where best to buy it online? For example I don't know if it is NATO green or something else? It will be applied by brush.
Thanks.
Hand painting - which paint?

Thanks guys.
I'm not looking for a concours finish - it was delivered new in bronze green and some poor squaddie was given the task of hand painting it! (I have the original casting document which shows it was a genuine ex-army vehicle and there are a couple of miltary modifications, although it still sports civilian-spec lights.)
I'm only wanting to touch up new nuts, bolts and other bits I've applied red oxide primer to so I'm looking for a tin of matt green (not satin) to be applied by brush, thinned as required in a paint pot. An ebay shop would be ideal.
Thanks again.
