Reply to "Need a good spray paint to "rust" my tracks"

Rust-Oleum Camo Green for main tracks.

Rust-Oleum Camo Brown for sidings, spurs, and yard tracks.

The "green" is more like a dusty gray earth tone, and looks great up close and from a distance.  It's your track, but I would advise against use of a rusty looking orange color.  Prototype rail is dirty more than rusty.  Shoot paint onto a section of track, wipe the top of the rail, and let it dry.  Take it inside and see how the color looks under the light you will use for your layout.  Then take it out onto dirt outside and see how it looks.

Rustoleum makes Army Green and Deep Forest Green - which do you recommend? Any pictures?
