Default Olive drab paint

I'm trying to find a bottle of olive drab paint for my Betty Body (with flames!) and am having no luck. Anyone know who makes one that will stick to lexan, or what colors I mix to make it myself?

Thanks!

Yellow and blue make green, I would imagine you'd need a little black to.

You can buy spray bombs of all the camo colors from the sporting good guys and they sell it for plastic surfaces as well.

OK, was finally able to find the answer online. Turns out olive drab is a really dark shade of yellow, gotten by mixing yellow with a little black. Who knew? Thanks for the suggestions.

Good use of the search Mortimer

That's surprising yellow and black... let us know how it turns out.
