Paint Match for HF Series 2 Boxes

[Mr onetwo]

I bought a pair of blue 26 x 22 boxes for my garage and was wondering if anyone had found a good match to that color in spray cans.I want to paint the old red Craftsman boxes to match if possible.Thanks

If you don't find a match, you could always take a part into the paint supplier & have it custom mixed

Miller welders blue?

Take out a drawer any drawer and take it into a automotive paint supply store. NAPA does paint for one . They should have a spectrograph or whatever it’s called . Shoot with the laser and use that magic calculation to custom mix your paint. I think it starts in half pint cans up gallon size whatever you need.
Get the good stuff . Epoxy prime, paint with hardened urethane. Imron or clone paint. The supplier can Square you away right quick

At least my NAPA spray cans where stupid expensive. $22 for a 3 oz can. However, quarts where down right reasonable. Mine had PPG and a house brand. The house was ridiculously cheap.

As expensive as they are the spray cans can be worth the cost if you don't have spraying equipment. I had to do some touch up on my boat after a run in with some rocks. We didn't have power at the marina where I stored it. The matching spray cans where god sent and $44 well spent.
