Rear Axle Paint

I recently had a rear axle rebuilt and I'm wondering what color/shade of black I should use to spray it...

Thinking Im going to rattle can it...

Any suggestions or pics from work you've done in the past?

Thanks

I have always used Rustoleum semi-flat black and it seems to hold up well. Here's a pic of my rearend lineup with the '68 3.23 rear freshly painted:


This close up shows what the '71 10 bolt looks like after several years under the car and ~10 years sitting behind the garage:
