Has anyone ever come across a spray paint colour which is a good match for the brandywine colour on a Eureka? I refurbed a 2087 ESP and it really could use a fresh coat of paint on the hood for that final touch. Or does anyone know if it's possible to have a can of spray paint custom mixed?

Custom mixing paints

I used to work at Sherwin Williams. My dad ran it for 30 some years. My dad had many customers that would bring him fabrics, cabinet door fronts, etc to match a certain color. At that time we also filled paint spray cans with custom mixed colors. Your best bet would be to go to a real paint store, instead of Lowes or Home Depot. Hope this helps...

If it's a metallic finish,

You can find an automotive paint supplier in your area. They have catalog upon catalog of paint samples for cars. The stuff is a little costly, but is pretty easy to work with. If you don't have a sprayer/compressor - you can buy a system at Lowe's or Home Depot called a Preval kit. With the proper thinning and mixing, you can spray your automotive finish that way.
