Default SSR Anthracite touch-up paint?

Anyone know a paint that's similar to SSR anthracite? I need to touch up a small knick on the lip.

Wheel manufactures seldom publish colors which can be store bought.

You may have to experiment. Small bottles of enamel paint for models are excellent.

If you mix silver plus white or silver plus black to get the desired color, here is a hint: go lighter than you think is perfect. A lighter color is less noticeable than one which is darker.

Good advice from davidv. Off topic but would you mind posting a picture or two of your setup? I've never seen the gray SSR comps on a Z.

I would love to, but they aren't mounted on the car yet and the car they're going on isn't a Z.

I'm sure you'll find pictures in the wheel/tire forum if you do a search.

There isn't any autopaint that's really close to the color is there?
