Oops slow down Bob, I think you’re stuttering. The paint on my Harrison H-02-47 heater housing was in excellent shape but there were a few spots that I wanted to touch up. I spent a couple of weeks and looked for a match in all of the retail rattle cans out there and there is no match for the original hammer tone. The texture is WAY rougher than the original and none of the tints match exactly. Here are some pictures of the samples that I tried. The Hammerite Rust Cap 41185 Bronze and Rustoleum 7218 Dark Bronze came the closest and if you used either one I don’t think anyone would ever notice the that it wasn’t the original tint;
