I unpacked my Lionel Missouri Pacific 6464-159 after years of storage and founf that the gray paint on the rood had blistered and peeled is places. Can anyone tell me what commercial spray paint might be a match. Id accept "very close" Thanks

You could take the Missouri Pacific to any paint store and they have a Paint Densitometer, that will measure reflective light and give you the color codes.

They will be able to find you a stock spray can or mix the color for you, then brush or spray on the paint. Home Depot can do this process. - Gary
