spray paint to camo a jacket?

[AKHUNTER]

Has anyone taken say a black synthetic jacket and spray painted some camo designs on it with spray paint to break up the solid color? Or any other color jacket? I was thinking of buying a non-hunting brand, non-camo, realtively cheap puffy jacket and spray painting some camo color on it. I was just wondering if others have done this and if it would look hideous or not! I might try it...

I did it with a hat from REI. Worked fine, but some might call it hideous.

No, but I do add a leaf suit jacket over top everyday clothes all the time.

Do it for sure and post pics once completed. My wife thinks most Camo, that I love, is hideous. I say go for it.

It'll work, I used to do it all the time. My advice would be to start with a lighter colored original garment though. If you start with black it will turn out really dark. Works great if you start with tan, or even gray and add green, brown and some black to that.

This ^^^
Get an ASAT leafy suit jacket and you've solved 99% of your hunting clothing decisions and saved money.

So glad you asked this question - was thinking the same thing. Picked up and el-cheapo Eddie Bauer at Sam’s for $20 and wanted to breakup the mono-color. It claims to have a DWR coating, so ???

Did you have any luck?

I've taken light colored fleece clothes and added green, brown, and black by using Sharpie markers. It will work for several years before fading. The green tends to turn bluish. But, it's really easy to just touch up again.

There are three sizes of sharpies: fine point, regular, and the really fat wide marker.

Old school camo. Used to do this a lot.

I would love to see some pics of this lol. At first it seems ridiculous but the more I think about it, it could work?

I used to use paint to darken faded camo for turkey hunting.

It works but one run through the washer usually loses most of the paint.
