If your talking about Rattlecans,.......

About the Best you're going to do is,...
Go to an Automotive Parts House,+ See if they have Touch-Up Rattlecans in a color that's Close to what you need.......

If you can Mix,+ Spray your Own,......

I'm Sure it can be Custom Mixed for you at a Quality Automotive Paint house.......

You should be able to find a Johnson paint match, if you look hard. Other than that, match it best as you can with normal spray paint, at your local Home Despot. If you can't find a suitable match, paint the whole LU with the color of your choice
