HF 13 Drawer Paint Match?

[NotSoSimple]

I received a free toolbox from a buddy moving to AK and not taking it with him. It is CAT yellow right now and I want to change it to match my Harbor Freight 13 Drawer. Has anyone found a close match to the crinkle red (pink ) that is on it?

You could just take one of the drawers to a paint store and have them color match it.

Then I would have to get a paint gun and I would be sleeping in the garage! Was hoping for some rattle can solution for cheap/ease of application.

NO RATTLE CANS! In a shop enviornment where you have oils and solvents on your hands that will come into contact with the paint it will look like **** in no time. You need a paint with a catalist/hardener for a toolbox. I have seen so many toolboxes ruined and looking much worse than before when people shoot them with rattle cans.

In the meantime, I will be just using it. However can you fault a guy for having some nice (looking) things

Good point on the paint w/ hardener in it.

Be easier to get the yellow i'd think. but i also work in a cat facility. so that'd be my choice

If it were me I would find a color I liked and repaint both of the boxes.

Auto body paint supply houses will mix any color and load them into spray bomb cans.
