Camo spray paint finder

Every colour in our camo stencil guides is given as a RAL code, the colour standard that military paint specs use. Matte RAL spray cans are not always easy to find, so this page lists ready-made spray paints that come close to each of the 53 RAL colours our patterns use: Montana BLACK and GOLD, Molotow Premium, MTN 94, Fosco Army Paint and CROP matte RAL.

Search by RAL number, colour name, brand or pattern. Each match links to a shop, or to a web search when the brand is sold in many places. 217 matches in total, closest first.

How the matches are picked

Each can's published colour is compared with the RAL colour using CIEDE2000, the standard formula for how different two colours look to the eye. Only cans within 8 units are listed, one per brand.

Colour values come from the makers' charts; Fosco colours are measured from their swatch images, so treat them as approximate.

What the labels mean

  • Very close: hard to tell apart side by side.
  • Close: a small difference you see next to the original.
  • Similar: the same colour family. Fine for camo.
  • Screens show colours differently, so test a can on scrap before painting.

Tips for matching camo paint

  • Always buy matte. Gloss or satin camo shines and looks wrong, even in the right colour.
  • For an exact RAL colour, a paint shop can mix any RAL code into a spray can.
  • Contrast matters more than the exact shade: keep light colours light and dark colours dark.
  • Spray a test card and let it dry. Paint looks different wet and dry.
  • Mixing brands is fine, but use one primer and finish with one matte clear coat.

The brands

  • Montana BLACK / GOLD: Graffiti paint with a matte finish, sold across Europe. BLACK sprays at high pressure, so use short passes.
  • CROP matte RAL: Ready-made RAL cans from nonpaints.com (Netherlands), so the colour is the RAL code itself.
  • Molotow Premium: German graffiti paint with a wide range of greys, browns and greens. Art and graffiti shops.
  • MTN 94: Low-pressure matte graffiti paint from Montana Colors, easy to control through a stencil.
  • Fosco Army Paint: Dutch matte military paint sold in airsoft shops, with camo shades like Coyote and Ranger Green.
