I've got to paint a pair of side panels this colour to match a tank.
The tank isn't exactly mint, so I'm thinking car colour rattle cans from Halfords or wherever, rather than an expensive perfect colour matched product.
Anyone like to suggest a likely colour match from a popular make of automobile ?
Otherwise I'm going to start guessing from scratch.
Basically, if I can get the side panels not to "jump out" as being a different colour, I'll be happy
 
Google local auto paint factors. They have a nice tool which scans panels with good paint to identify a pigment mix to match. They can mix to match and supply in aerosols. I have one not too far from me in Colchester. I took my 66 year old (red) car and the match has been perfect.

Thanks for that !
Looks like getting some T-Cut on the tank this weekend, and cleaning/polishing through 53 years of dirt and grease.
Hopefully I'll find an area which hasn't faded too much
