I want to paint my 47 Deluxe Heater. Has anyone found a good color match in a spray can ? Looks like what I would call a shade of taupe.
Thanks for your help.

I used the COT 40's hammer tone for my under seat heater

Not sure but I think the Deluxe Htr is a different color than the Super Deluxe Htr. Appreciate the quick response to my inquiry.

I could be wrong but that is the color of both my heater and under dash defroster

I've got an under-seat heater & defroster, including the vents, NOS in the box...Gene's correct, they're tan...

So is the paint you used from CO40s ? Looks like I will be going with a tan color. I was hoping someone had found a match in a spray can that could be bought at local hardware.
Thanks to everyone for their input
