Looking for double hung replacements, some brown out and in, some brown out beige in. Any ideas?

What kind of brown?

Several manufacturers make Cocoa variants and they are usually Cocoa vinyl (i.e. throughout). In the case of a brown exterior with beige interior, you could accomplish that with a beige vinyl window (i.e. beige throughout) being painted brown on the exterior with an applied finish.

Soft-Lite or OKNA.

A dark brown or bronze.

In that case, I don't know of any vinyl manufacturers off the top of my head that are making the dark bronze on the inside.

You can still paint as I mentioned and get the exterior color that you need but I don't know of anyone off the top of my head doing the bronze on the inside.

What type paint could I use on the outside?

[TheWindowNerd]

normally you can't with out voiding the warranty.
the mfg use very special heat reflective coatings.

[DaveSweet]

You mean paint the inside?
Not sure of what paint to use. Krylon?

As anthony stated, you will void the warranty of any vinyl window if you paint it, whether it is inside or out. Many manufacturers offer painted or coated exteriors in the color that you are looking for, but you will not find bronze on the interior in any of the better know product lines (if any at all...). Cocoa/brown would be the closest, and that is as a brown extrusion. I've not seen a vinyl window with a painted interior.

Fiberglass windows can be painted without causing any damage to the window. You can order them from virtually any manufacturer in dark brown/bronze on the exterior. As for the interior, dark brown is common, and if beige is not available, it can be painted.
