Paint to match anything is, in reality, something that is never reality. Although the pigment may be precise, the surface, and method, and technique (applied wet, or dry) of application will alter the finished product.

[8D]Easy solution. Take a swatch of your Ultracote white covering, visit your local automotive paint shop, find the guy who preps
automotive paint, give him your swatch of white covering and tell him that you would like a can(s) of spray paint that will match
your Ultracote white. Also ask him to prep for you a spray can of clear coat to protect the white automotive spray. This has worked
for me for years. Don't look for the junk that is "pretty close".

Plasi-Kote in the automotive parts stores is the same type of paint as Lusterkote. I believe there are several shades of white, maybe one match's. If it match's any white paint on your car then see if Plasti-Kote makes a paint for your car!
