Refinish Paint on Lathe - Crackle effect and factory paint color

[Pevehouse]

+1 for color matching at sherwin Williams. Looks to be close to the smoke gray that rustoleum sells. Here’s a pic of that color after drying

Yours appears to be more of a blue though

The industrial Sherwin Williams store here does a pretty good job of color matching. I don't know about their retail outlets.

I've pulled off some exquisite results with the wrinkle paint. The trick is to lay it on heavy and use a heat gun to cure it, but to stop short of overcooking it. Great stuff!

They can put it in spray cans for you if you want. Kind of expensive though.
