HillBill I agree, but on the other hand my partner tends to poke my gear with a pointed stick and ask me if its alive when i get back So if you gotta wash your gear go down this route.

I just ware blue denim as most are color blind anyway
As a useful tip
Bung a bag of washing soda in a bucket, soak you gear overnight and then do a cold wash. Do not throw away the bucket of soda, now throw in your billy and cooking pans leave for a couple of days, then rinse off. All of the muck will be gone, works for hexy deposits as well. I have been using the same bucket for about three months now! looks like a black swamp, cleans just fine.

The question still remains though, most WHAT are color blind? What do you seek to camouflage yourself from and is trying to blend into the background the best method?
I neglected to mention in my previous post the the camo with which I have had the best results. I bought a piece of camo netting, such as would be placed over an artillery piece or truck, etc. This is the type that looks like fishnet with long curvy strips of vinyl. I cut out a rectangle of it and cut a hole in the center for my head and simply wear it like a poncho. I then don my cap with veil and my camo gloves. Then finally, I drape a small piece of it over my head and shoulders. This in effect gives you a ghille suit for practically no money invested. The kind that I have is multipurpose; green on one side brown on the other, so you can tailor it to your surroundings. Another nice feature is that you can carry it in your back pack into the woods, don the whole outfit, hunt, photograph, observer or whatever. Then take it all off, stow it, and walk out. Just wear something subdued underneath that won't show through. By the way, some materials that look subdued in the visual spectrum that we see in are glaringly reflective in the spectrum of many of the animals.
I might get away with a bucket in the garage.
Do you use a plastic bucket?
