I've used R&E Paints before with great results. https://repaintsupply.com/harley-dav...ilver-fortune/

Did you have good luck with it matching. I know the manager at O'Reilly he tried to match it with color gun and it is no where close.

bring it to a paint shop like house of color or such. the computer scan can come close but it will be a cigarette and not cigar, reason is the paint changes when drying. the lady who does mine will start with a sample can, tweak it, chip it and dry it, sometimes she has to do it a few times, but she usually nails it, formula in hand mixes what is needed.

Went back to O'Reilly's today. He scanned it again and got a different mixing formula. It's not a perfect match but it is close enough. I know when I used to paint all the time that I hated pewter and white it was the hardest 2 colors to match
