Does anyone know where I can find KHAKI spray paint, and German field grey? Thanks All

For Khaki try out the Krylon Camo Spray paint. I have not been able to find any German Feldgrau though

I second the use of Krylon Desert Camo paint, and I haven't found the feldgrau either, but I use the dark green Krylon Camo color as a base and paint a feldgrau acrylic on top with a bit lighter color green to make it a highlight color. Maybe someone ele has the magic spray on that one. Cheers.

Testors Model Master has a line of paints in various military colors, although I don't think they have one specifically labeled "Feldgrau", I do believe there's something fairly close. Also see Tamiya Color spay cans for other options. Google Testors and Tamiya for more info.

I have found that Rustoleum Camoflague Dark Green is dead on with Vallejo Field Grau. I've primed/base coated my friend's Wehrmacht with it, then touched up with Vallejo Field Grau (almost perfect match) then mixed a little grey in and drybrushed for a highlight.

Rustoleum also makes a Khaki color as well.

The Krylon Camo Khaki color is very useful. I used it for my WW2 British and Russians. Would work good for British Colonials too.
