Does anyone know a paint color in Krylon or Rustoleum or ??? that will match the painted steel parts; frame, tanks, etc?

Richard, I use either rustoleum Professional,aluminum#7515 or Krylon Bright Metallic finish 1403,Dull aluminum on My 77 SS both seem to work well. Carl Rodgers

Richard,
I have found that a quart of paint purchased at Ace hardware in the Ace brand name called aluminum/chrome works best. My experience with spray paints has proven that it will dull over several months. This paint will last for a full year and I use one of those disposable foam applicators for a smooth finish. I use it on the bumper, a-frame and tanks each spring.It dries very shiny and brush stroke free. It can also be used on chain linked fencing!
