If you are deciding on a color (any color) to paint your truck have the paint mixed to match a swatch from a color chart... and look at the colors in daylight. Fluorescent lights give off a green color light and incandescence give off a brownish color light.

Color is one of the most esoteric and misunderstood subjects you can imagine.
