Good luck with that, I sent that question to this list this spring, no one
came up with a match.

I have about 8 rattle cans of brown paint, none of which are quite right. I
tried bringing a part to my local Home Depot, and having them try to mix up
matching brush paint... no luck. Final color wasn't close enough, and they
only had gloss paint available for custom colors (it looks like Westfalia
used more of a satin finish).

I finally gave up, and used the closest bad match off my paint shelf.
