Craftsman/Vaughan green paint for hammers

[Slinger646]

Any ideas for a paint that matches? I emailed Vaughan...(great customer service, the email tree was included and they literally asked three people before replying) and they have no records as to the color.

Rustoleum hammered green looks pretty good on them.

I use Rustolem hammered blue, it is missing that green hue, but it is close enough for me.
Post back if you locate it?

I received a second email from Vaughan:

Thank you for contacting us through our website. I did some checking here and it has been too long ago to find any of that information. I did a search on the internet and found a couple of options for you to consider. I’m uncertain if the handtools used the same green as the lawn and garden items.

B: If your willing to paint the entire thing, you can get rustoleum classic JD Green, mix a little black into it and you'll get the color super close to the orig Craftsmen Polo green. just do a little at a time till it looks right.


Hope this helps.
