Quoted from okorange:A Pantone formula guide is your friend. Find the correct match and bring it to the paint store, they can mix it from the swatch.
Those guides are like $160 .

It's free to roll the empty cab or head on a dolly into your local Ace, and let them scan all your colors.
Have Ace mix them up in Semi-gloss latex and you are good to go in 10 minutes.
Get a quart of the most expensive paint they have for each color. Cheaper paints won't cover well, and if you have to lay down 3 coats, it will be so thick, you will see the edge.
Quoted from okorange:To me it's indispensable as I occasionally do digital fixes of backglasses as well.
Yeah, I've got a set that I stole from work, but I'd never go out of my way to buy one.
