Default Hallicrafters Repro Paint

I did look an nothing came even close. I was doing a COMPLETE restoration on
this radio and wanted to do it as right as possible. Now all I have to do is
the white lettering using an ALPS printer and white lettering.

I have always found an off the shelf paint that will match or come so
close for every Hallicrafters that I have ever restored. Look before
you spend your money you might be surprised. As someone stated
Hallicrafters never used the same shade of paint twice it seems.

$47.00
for a pint.
