Default RE: Monokote paint matching

Another option is to have a quart of latex custom mixed. Spray it on, then let it dry for a MINIMUM of 14 days. At that point you will need to clear coat it to make it fuel proof (I use/prefer Ultracote clear ). The latex will cost about $8 - $10 for a quart. Most any exterior latex works fine. You should get a flat paint and rely on the clear coat for the gloss. Semi-gloss and gloss latex take about 4 weeks to cure.
