Dargie vs. Olive Gold

Ritch (Oddjob) asked me to describe he differences between Dargie Martini Green and Olive Gold. Y'all can judge for yourselves. Both great colors.

I think I like the new kid on the block better.

Dargie Green is slowly becoming like Desert Gold to me. It's a flashy color that looks great but I prefer the laid back cool of Olive Gold.
