I wanted to refinish a ratty looking MFJ tuner I had to match my corsair II.
I took the power supply cover to the local Lowes and was able to get a quart
of semi gloss paint. The color computer match was close but not exact. At
any rate, I did not have to purchase a gallon and the tuner looks pretty
good sitting next to the corsair.
The usual disclaimers apply & YMMV...
