MM US Army and Marines Gulf War Sand is not a good color to use for current CARC Sand, FS 33531. It was based on a color that was applied in Saudi Arabia and bought from local suppliers there. It is not a FS Standard color, but was just a local sand color that was used to quickly paint vehicles and it actaully chipped, faded and didn’t hold up well. It is darker than the CARC Sand color as well. It can be used for ODS vehicles that were painted in Saudi, but I wouldn’t use it for anything else. If you want a factory pained CARC Sand, use the FS 33531.
