I get my colors from my auto body shop. Today we use a water base paint and it
works very well for me on my model trains. The paint shop has a color book with
every imaginable shade with a formula. Sprays, dries and covers just like model
water base. And is just as thin. Will not harm plastic and use a shake can of
etch primer on raw brass. The etch prime is so thin you can see thru it.
If you are having a problem of matching the sheen and to help with good color
match. Try what we did way back in the lacquer days. Your first coat would be
on the whole panel and it would be a gloss clear. Let dry then lay down your
color and blend out. Let dry so you don't move your color and cover with your
dull or semi dull finish coat.
