Durham Gray Cabinet Paint Match?

[appleton]

Has anyone been successful at matching Durham's gray paint? I've got a number of the Durham 12/14ga steel cabinets and picked up a few more Stronghold's. I'd like to paint the crusty ones to match the Durhams? I'm hoping to pick up a quart or two of Rustoleum and spray it.. but trying to avoid the trial/error part of it.

thanks in advance!

I would take a sample piece of your cabinet in to a paint store & get a colour match done on it

Yep, that's plan B.. Unfortunately the smallest part is a 4' shelf. If I can't get any tips, that's the next stop.

Durham gray is almost identical to Huot gray.
I had the local TrueValue Hardware store do a color match in a quart of oil - based Rust Bullet when I did the lockers on my gas pump cabinet.
Took in a shelf, they dabbed a bit of the mix on the underside to ensure it matched. Had to add a little black to the formula the color computer spit out.

I start with my Fan Deck to get the closest premixed formula and then add other bits of paint as necessary.
