Fallout 76 is the latest installment in the iconic Bethesda video game saga. As in previous versions, the player has to survive in a post-apocalyptic world full of radiation and dangers.
This game differs from previous versions in that it takes place in a multiplayer environment. So, now the dangers are not limited to the world of Fallout 76, but also other players can be an obstacle.
The Fallout 76 Slocum Joe’s paint scheme
One of the sections in which the Fallout saga usually stands out is in the personalization. Fallout 76 is no exception, allowing players to adjust many aesthetic and visual elements to their liking.
One of the ways players can customize their experience is with paint schemes. These can be applied to different items (weapons, armor, etc.) and radically change their appearance.
One of the paint scheme options that Fallout 76 offers is the Slocum Joe’s paint. But, according to recent reports, there is a problem that does not allow to equip the paint scheme to any Power Armor.
Slocum Joe’s paint unable to equip on any Power Armor
Many Fallout 76 players are facing a glitch where they are unable to equip Slocum Joe’s paint to a Power Armor, whatever model it is (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).

So with Minerva being at crater, I saw the plan for the PA paint. I’ve learned the plan, and tried the different PAs that the wiki says they are meant to work on, and I can’t find it. I’m just wondering if anyone else had this issue or know how to fix it.

Apparently, when players try to find that particular paint scheme (in the edit screen), it doesn’t appear available for selection. But, when they go out and check the inventory, it does show as purchased.
Just bought the Slocum Joe’s PA paint. Try to apply it to a T-51 set. Wasn’t even in the menu to apply, tried T-60, same thing. Then I checked Minerva’s inventory again and it shows that I bought and learned the plan. Anybody else having similar issues?

Bethesda is already aware
Currently, the Bethesda team is aware of the glitch. At the moment, the company only says that the fix will be available in the next update. But, there is still no estimated date for its rollout.
