- Howdy Folks, This video will demonstrate How To Spray Paint Multicamesque Camouflage Patterns. Some of you may not have noticed, but I like the Multicam camouflage pattern, just a little bit... OKAY! I Admit It! I Have A Problem! I'm A Multicamoholic! Shortly after Crye Precision introduced the Multicam pattern (20 years ago) and I began to purchase Multicam patterned products, I started experimenting with duplicating this unique pattern. After multiple attempts, I believe I have achieved the ability to adequately reproduce a "Multicamesque" version with spray paint.
I will take the viewer step by step through the entire process of how I spray paint a "Multicamesque" camouflage pattern. I paint a Nalgene Water Bottle to demonstrate the process. However, this technique can be applied to any item you wish to camouflage.
The Paint I Used: If memory serves me correctly, the brand and colors are as follows... Krylon Cover Maxx Brown Boots/ Satin, Krylon Fusion Matt Spanish moss, Rustoleum Camouflage (colors are not named on the cans) Light Green, Dark Green, Dark Brown, And Buff/Tan (not the lightest, the lightest is too light).
If Multicam is not your "cup of tea", No Worries! The technique and process I demonstrate can be used to paint any pattern or color scheme you desire.

I tried this and my water bottle disappeared in the bush. Forget Harry Potters cloak of invisibility. I'll bet my water bottle smiles to itself every time I walk past it. Nice job...
😆😅😄😆😅😄😆😅😄👍😆😅😄👍😆😅😄👍 Thank You! I Needed This Today!!!!
Did you try "Accio water bottle"?
Works like a charm
Brilliant work Boondockery! Greetings from an old South African bush war veteran. Spray paint was used extensively to camouflage R1 7.62 FN rifles and other weapons and equipment, both in Rhodesian and the SADF units. In those days camo tape and the special cans of spray paint were not available in the region. Multicam did not exist then either. Later in the war the R4 rifle was brought out in a brown colour. Spray paint was extensively used by the special forces units..
These elements went to a great deal of effort to camouflage every item of team and personal equipment, as part of their philosophy of painstaking, detailed preparation. There is no quick fix to this effort, as some on this blog have alluded to. You have that detailed, analytical and solution oriented approach that made South African and Rhodesian special forces world leaders in their field at that time period in history.
Rob, You Had To Have Seen Some Serious SHITE! I am so very grateful for your comment! You have justified my efforts and successes in this trial and error process! I personally feel that the journey is as important as the destination. I feel when I reach whatever destination I reach, my kit will be in order. Thank again so very much! You Have Made My Evening!!! God Bless You My Friend!
I'd like to give you my best regards, and sincere appreciation for your service to your country.
Agree. Australian Army 1980s. We used to wrap our SLR in hessian( your R1 just made here in inch pattern ) khaki green isdue clothing kit webbing. We did what we wanted thought worked best. Hessian tie on scrim net spray paint grey tan browns. Tbh your bush is basically the same colours as here your SADF brown uniforms would have worked better here to. We went Auscam. Which was ok once it faded. New multicam in auscamish colours also I believe works better here faded. What is best is coyote and spray it up net it up Hessian in my opinion

Die goeie tye
I've watched a bunch of rattle can camo videos. This is perhaps the best presentation I have seen.
Thank You VERY Much! I deeply appreciate that! I will be doing the same process on my RECCE Rifle build. I may or may not share it seeing how CZcamss agenda sways.
@@boonedockery7220 I'd love to see that, this was a great breakdown and the colors are probably the closest I've seen.
@@ayegee6093 Thank You! The video might be on Rumble but I'll put the word out via CZcams community posts!
@@boonedockery7220 Gonna have to check it out !
Very well done! Effective application. A couple of notes from a professional painter, the 91% alcohol also removed mold release as well as dust. Secondly, the frog tape is formulated to repell water based paint. It will work on solvent based paint but so will the cheaper blue tape. In either case avoid the tape with ripples as any paint will bleed under the edges. Great plan on the order of color application.
Thank You Very Much Michael! I deeply appreciate the tips!
I worked as a painter's apprentice for about a year, we went through a few rolls of Frog Tape every single day! Thank you for reminding me about it.
What do you mean about tape with ripples? That has been exactly my problem, the paint bleeding under the tape 😢
Is the blue tape not good for this?
@theurbanartist775 put the tape down after spraying with your color you used first, then respray over the tape with the same color as is under the tape, then spray your new color over the top. The double shot of the same color(1 shot under and one over) prevents the new color from leaking under the tape. It acts a a sealant or super think laying of caulking. It's how you get crisp, sharp lines IF that's what you're looking for. But with camo, crisp lines can make it so you're more easily seen. But, if you just want a crisp clear pattern then use yet technique
Using the flat and satin was really smart. It does add a huge amount of depth. Definitely tricks the human eye.
Thank You! Took a while to figure that one out!
Thanks for the great tip!
I like this idea of satin and ultra flat, but am curious whether you’ve shined a light on them after dark. As in tossing it somewhere outside and seeing whether a white light will reflect more dramatically off the satin finish and stand out or just be a normal reflection of the white light as the surrounding waxy vegetation? In other words, does it react the same to concentrated white light at night as it does to sunlight in the day? Thanks.
@@chadlowery1098 The satin should break up light waves. So the same effect you get in the sun would be similar at night. The moon is just the reflection of the suns rays. A mix of blacks and dark greys flat and satin might be better at night.
This is by far the best homemade spray paint camp job I’ve ever seen. I feel inspired
Thank You!
if you go to an art supply store, they have a low adhesion "Frisket" which is thin film that clings but is very easy to peel off. it's made for airbrushing.
Thank You! I completely forgot about FRISKET!!!! I used it a lot in the early 80s when I was in college! I don't have a decent art supply store within 50 miles of where I live so I'll order online! Thank You Again!
I had never heard of this until you said it. I wish I had known about this sooner.
This is so sweet. My coworker has a scar with a trashy Multicam finish on layaway and he knocks on my spray painted poverty ponies. Im so excited to show him up in front of everyone with this epic Multicam idea. Thank you! (Btw were pals. Mostly no negativity)
Hahaha.... I hope it turns out great!
Bloody Excellent 👍 a nice gentle presentation on camo painting.
Learnt loads about layering. Thanks
Thank You Very Much! The layering of the paint (allowing drying time between coats) negates the necessity of clear coating on these smaller items. Ogres, onions, parfaits, camouflage water bottles.... it's the layers that are important...😊😉👍
I really liked your explanation of your color palette. Super informative video from start to finish. Thanks!
Thank You Very Much! A lot of trial and error over the years, but I think it works pretty well.
Excellent job!!!!! Congratulations. I will try to paint this scheme soon. Thanks for your time
Thank you Martin! I hope your project turns out well and you enjoy doing it! Have a great day!
John that really turned out awesome. I like multicam but I been leaning more toward the multicam tropic, you gave me great ideas for my water bottles
Thank you Mark! Multicam Tropic is FANTASTIC for SE Ohio woods in the summer. I find the types of trees, foliage, undergrowth change dramatically as I move through the woods. Also the seasonal changes also change dramatically. So, that's why I run with Multicam (OCP/Scorpion/MTP). Mixing and matching patterns work pretty well. I have experimented with wearing Multicam equipment with ATCAS FG. That works out very well in the greener months and forests. I'm certain the same would be true with mixing Tropical MC With Standard MC.
Good Luck with your water bottles! You can use the same technique and process I used to produce the Tropical MC, just replace the browns with a wide variety of greens.
Thanks Again!
Have a great day!
Great instructional video! I appreciate your effort to document the process. Regards.
Thank You Very Much! I'm very happy you enjoyed it!
Hey John! That was fantastic. Great job!
Thank You Very Much Madison!!!!
By far the best camo painting video I've seen.
Thank You VERY MUCH Daniel!
That turned out great. Thank you for sharing
You're VERY WELCOME!!
wow, tons of detailed information. pro tips here. thanks for detailing all the major steps needed. pretty labor intensive. looks fun to do. this process can be duplicated for anything. like even tarps.
Wow! Incredible! Painting good camo is quite a challenge.
That came out really good!
Awesome man, it's informative and you have a relaxing voice... Well done!
Thank you sir! A lot of excellent advice and how the process goes.
Thank you very much!
Just awsome! Pure skill!👍👍👍
There were a lot of fails before I got to this point. Thank You Very Much!
This rocks! Best rattle can video ive seen vs the gun specific searches i’ve watched (a lot). Great work man!
One of the best how to camo videos Ive seen well done
Thank You!
Excellent work and thorough tutorial! You have really awesome content and I always look forward to new videos even if I don’t comment much. Aloha 🤙🏽
Thank You Very Much! I deeply appreciate that! I'm going to edit another video as soon as I reply to this and a few other comments. Aloha!
Thanks for a most excellent video!!! I’ll be employing your techniques when I paint some items later this year.
Thank You! I wish you great success and I hope you enjoy doing it as much as I do! Please send me some pics of your projects when you finish them to boonedockery@gmail.com
Great job looks good
Inspiring and educational. Thanks!
Thank You! Glad you enjoyed it!
Something I use on my rifles instead of masking tape is liquid dish soap. Obviously, you still want to mask off optic lenses, adjustment values and other sensitive areas... but I've found starting with a tan base coat, allowing it to dry, and then hitting the rifle with random stripes of dish liquid, and alternating brown and olive drab randomly gives me a decent pattern that blends in fairly well in all seasons. :]
The dish soap basically acts as masking tape. Once the paint dries, you can spray off the weapon with water and you're left with tan stripes underneath olive drab and brown splotches.
Very nice, this is the best color match for Multicam that I have seen and you did an excellent job with the stenciling/layering/application
Thank you very much!
Looks great! Another really good video
thanks!
I love your videos from Japan. This attempt has not been done at all in Japan, so I would like to try it immediately.
Thank You! Good Luck On Your Multicam Painting Attempt! I have a couple more Multicam painting projects I will be doing soon. I can't wait to get started! Thanks for commenting and have a great day!
Wow,that was really nice and awesome job. I love it...😍
Thank You Very Much! I wish some one would produce a pallet of true Multicam paint colors!
Really nice job and informational. Thank you for taking the time to make this video
Thank You! I'm glad you liked it!
That’s a perfect camouflage, thanks for the tips 🎨
Thank you very much! Anytime!
Good application of paint and process and even more rare a well done video production, I have been painting different camouflage schemes for several years , mainly on my rifles. Doing a professional job and masking is very time consuming . I have not done multicam-esque in years and was reviewing videos , your video is the best on CZcams " in my opinion " . Now I am off to the workshop to disassemble and paint two identical rifles for two very good friends . Those fellows are going to owe me big time. Thank you for taking the time and for all the work involved.
Thank you !
Great video. I'll be trying this on a handful of things, thank you!
Thank You! I hope it all turns out well!
best tutorial on camo-painting yet!!
Thank you very much! I really wanted to post a video on multicamming my RECCE rifle. Apparently, it's evil in the eyes of CZcams. I think that even painting a water bottle demonstrates the process. HOPEFULLY, with the clarity that anyone can AND will do it themselves.
That turned out really well.
I like to think so. Thank You!
Nice job sir! I’ll be doing this soon
I think it looks brilliant. Well done.
Thank You Very Much!
I am very impressed with this.
Thank you
Thats a pretty good match to the packs camo. Nice job mate.
Found this while looking for vehicle paint jobs, planning on doing a Suburban in this later on. A quick fix to the graduations you left unpainted, same one you already used, tape. I've done a couple rifles but not a water bottle. Going to start small before hitting a truck. Thanks for posting.
One idea if you don’t want to freehand the shapes is to consider finding a camo print online. Print and lay it on top of your tape layers. From there cut out the shapes.
Good Idea! I've used stencils I've cut in the past, but they really only work well on flat objects.
I laser cut stencils out of mylar. These are easy to clean and reuse.
Nice job! It looks great!
Thanks!
Awesome stuff! You did a damn good job with this 👏
Thank You!
Looks pretty awesome!
Thank You!!!
I caught the Scooby Doo teference ! LOL
Great instructional !
Thanks much !
Wulfy
Awesome job, I'm gonna give this a try on my holster to match the multicam battle belt I'm running. My favorite time of year for paint job's is fall, nice warm sunny day without the humidity. I'm a Buckeye too and spraying outdoors on a high humidity day sucks.
Thank you! I hope your happy with your holster when you finish it! Ohio Summers are my LEAST favorite!
You made a cracking job of that. 👍🇬🇧
Thank You Very Much!
bro that looks incredible. good job
Thank You! I Appreciate that!
Well done 👏👀
Great job bro! Earned my subscription on the spot
Thank You VERY MUCH!!!! Welcome to the family!
Nicely done I have a few paint cans left over from painting rifles I’m gonna try your masking style on my hydro flask
Hey brother that looks great! I want to do this to my rifle one day. Thanks for the ideas!
Turned out sooo well! Removing the masking tape is always the best part 💪😅
Thank You! I Agree Completely! It's like unwrapping a Christmas Present!😊😉👍
Very nice. I tried the soap method for masking yesterday and got even better results. For my taste of course. Due to the spill of the soap you get some trippy patterns. I just jumped in the process and was really impressed by my work to be honest. The randomness of the soap spill after you apply it adds an element thats hard to replicate if you are not really good at this i think:) tnx for the video
Thanks, sir! I needed it for service gear
Glad to help!
Hey, John! Man, that looks FAN-TASTIC! You made it look so easy, too! I most definitely going to have to try that out in the future. BTW, I always thought those rattle can handles were sort of gimmicky, made for people who are afraid to get their hands dirty, haha! I guess I'll give those a shot, too. Thanks, Brother!
Thanks Brother! Yeah, those spray triggers really help with hand fatigue! I have "Rattle Can Multicamed" A Lot of large projects (in size and numerically) and that triggered grip saved me a lot of time and discomfort. Like I said in the video, you can use these techniques and processes to make any pattern you want. If you don't want to cut your own pattern mask, there are several companies that make stencils. I've cut my own when I did large projects but I don't think the results are as good as applying masks. There is a company called Freedom Stencils and they produce a HUGE range of pre-cut vinyl stencils ( I call them masks). If you want a project to turn out perfect, I'd recommend them. www.freedomstencils.com/collections/camouflage-stencils
Great video brother....I trusted your process from the beginning, but when I saw the socks with the sandals my hands went up 🙏🏾 I knew you were a real one! Great content dude!
Thank You Very Much! Just Keeping It Real!
Great job!
Thank you Very Much!
Thanks for showing us
I love doing this! It's my pleasure! Thank you for watching and commenting!
Very interesting that you mentioned MTP!!! 🇬🇧
I LOVE MTP! The true selling point is that they incorporated shapes from the DMP pattern in it! I love that kind of stuff!
Pretty good. Turned out sweet. Now let’s see this on fabric.
That was amazing.
Thank You Jay!
I used your method to Multicam-esque my tv remote and the car keys. Thanks for nuthin’, man!
Very cool and a fun way to improve your kit !
Thank you! I enjoy it!
Love the method. I'm going to try it on a pair of slide for a friend's birthday.
Awesome! I hope they turn out well!
Well done 👍
Thank You!
I tried this at home and it worked I was really happy and I love your videos and you are the best you tuber and I I wish I could meet you in person
That turned out pretty decent looking!
Thank You! With more time and better paint selections, you can get very close to the actual Crye Pattern.
Looks great.
Thank You!
Thats pretty close ! Looks good.
Rather good, thanks 👍
Much Appreciated!
Love it good information. God bless.
Thank You Brother! May Gods Blessing Be Upon You As Well!
Outstanding GREAT IDEA thanks
thank you
Excellent job! I'm going to use this to paint my rifles!!
Good presentation.
Thank You! Glad you liked it!
Did a great job!
Thank You Very Much Alton!
Thats pretty damn good
Nice work mister!
Thank You Very Much!!!!
It's too pretty. I would not to mess it up. Bravo!
this was great! I hadnt really thought about some of this kinda gear. Water bottles, multitools, battery packs etc. Ive got some painting to do haha 10/10 video man!
Have Fun! I thoroughly enjoy painting my kit!
That's awesome. Thank you.im going to try this
Thank you! It's not perfect but I think it works pretty well. Let me know how your project turns out if you decide to try it.
great tutorial, Greetings from Ecuador
Thank You! I believe you are my first commenter from Ecuador! Welcome, I hope you find one or two more of my videos you like! Have a great evening!
Hey there, good job and attention to the details. That water jug paint job will match up quite well with your walnut shelled "Sasquatch ACU" brown camo uniform. Again, good job! 👍🏻
Thank You! I appreciate that!
Hallo John! Awesome job! Never seen a spraypaint DIY project turning out that well (compared to my past ones). The way you did it makes a good result, often there is much more to it then most people may think. I know camouflage is a widely spread subject, there`s alot to pay attention to.
Ich bin schon gespannt was für spannende Projekte du noch mit uns teilen wirst! Auf jeden Fall ich hier und da noch etwas von dir abschauen 👍
Viele Grüße aus Deutschland, Torsten
Vielen Dank Torsten! Nachdem ich den Prozess und die Technik perfektioniert hatte, habe ich viele Gegenstände „multicamed“! Ich genieße es wirklich! Ich werde die ALICE Mods in naher Zukunft filmen!
@@boonedockery7220 that's cool, looking forward to it! 👍
I really wasn't diggin the process, but wow, I watched until the end and can see the purpose. One of the best camo jobs I've seen, well done! Would love to see you do a rifle!
Thank You! I'll have to post my rifle paintjob on Rumble. CZcams doesn't like anything gun related.
Well done sir.
Thank you Very Much! I love this recipe and cooking it while I camp.
Damn, that was impressing!
Great job, now I want to try it, but with woodland
Thank You! Woodland is an easy pattern. Finding the correct colors is the hard part.
awesome job !!!!
I am going to do this to eveything in my house.
😆😅😄Thank you and good luck!
I have a cnc laser and have recently cut out a Vietnam tiger stripe camo pattern to paint one of my rifles out of stencil vinyl. I’m just too scared to actually do it 😂 I know I need to just go for it, it’s just so hard for me to visualize the order of colors and stuff to get the look I want, this video really helped.
Word to the wise: cutting vinyl with a laser creates chlorine gas which will turn into hydrochloric acid if mixed with water. VENT YOUR AREA WELL. Or, like a smart person, borrow someone’s Cricut and avoid tear-gassing yourself 😂. I’m impatient and own a chemical respirator so I just went ahead and did it. My laser is directly next to a window with a fan in it facing out, and I had a fan on my side pushing the smoke towards that fan. It was fine. There IS “laser safe” or PVC-free stencil vinyl which is actually just polyurethane and contains no PVC (the bad stuff that makes CS gas when burnt), but again, I’m impatient, and an idiot.
I have a RECCE rifle that I'm going to paint but finding the duration of time I need to do the project with consecutive days is daunting. It will be multicamesque as well. I will be using laser cut vinyl stencils made by Freedom Stencils.
I've always tried to figure out how to do something like this in my head, but you got it down. It's a lot of work, but that payoff is worth it!
Thank You Very Much! "IF" only ANY of the Spray Paint Companies would manufacture the Multicam Color Pallet, That Would Be Nice!
Impressed!
Thank You Very Much!!!
If you wanna blend.. Use black paint with a sponge. And just do the edges of where colors meet.. Cut the sponges in different shapes if you wanna, theres plenty of tutorials out there. Sometimes I use colors that are way off in "partnership" . I use whatever I have left in my cans before I buy more paint. And I implement multiple techniques, to always get some weird strange patterns. Good vid! Love it!!!!!
Great Tip! Thank You!
Looks legit! 👍
Awesome!
I don't love the result but I don't hate it either. I think its exactly as you said. Great video!
Thank you and excellent! It is what it is and it works pretty good. Mission accomplished.
Tremendous job need more videos like this up the good work .. 👍👍🇺🇸🐊🌴😎🇺🇸👍
Thank You Very Much! Believe me, If my life wasn't so chaotic, I'd be cranking out many more Rattle Can Multicam Videos! Too Many Projects, Too Little Time!!! Have a Blessed Day My Friend!
