Hey all, hopefully this is an appropriate first post. I’ve sent my CLR to Mr Forbes to have his treatment done to it. I’m off to choose a color and have seen CL camo pop up but pictures from old posts are missing or too small to get a good visual. Any one have any good pictures? And while we’re at it feel free post up a picture of your NULA/ULA/“melvinized” CLR’s!

honestly I went back and forth over that woodland stripe, I gotta admit I like it because for me it’s synonymous with ULA but at the same time, I don’t actually like it. LOL

When Melvin redid my Forbes LH in 280 AI I chose this paint it was not done in house.

I was wondering that myself, that sorta makes sense, the gentleman working with Melvin told me it was a maple and oak leaf pattern
