56 Interior paint

Hard to believe, but in 60 years the interior trim paint (around the doors and windows) of the Super 88 have begun to show some wear and I'm looking to find the paint to touch up some areas.

I know it won't match exactly after years in the Texas and California sun.

I have the following numbers for reference:

From my Service Manual:
Rinshad Mason L22A046
Dupont 59398

From Autocolor Library:
2377 Medium Gray

So I sent this info to paintscratch.com and they drew a blank.

Does anyone have another source?

Thanks in advance

Are you looking for Rattle can paint, or some to spray from a spray gun.? If rattle can,I suggest you remove one of the smaller pieces you plan on painting ( on Super 88 one of the finger bowls out of the armrest),take it with you .I found a color in (small can)and it matched well.
If you have access to spray gun and compressor, then take the piece to an auto paint store and they should be able to match it for you. Larry

I've never used them, but in Camaro circles I've heard this place mentioned numerous times. They usually call and speak with someone there who is a good source, but I can't recall his name:
