Exterior Paint Colors

Can anyone tell me what paint spec is a good match for:

1) A polished Airstream?
2) Original '73 Argosy colors?

I have Ellie just about prepped and want to get prices for both alternatives so any specifications are appreciated.

Nick

Any help on this? I know I saw the silver metallic match on here but i can't find it with the search tools.

Ideas?

Not sure on the Argosy colors but on the polished Airstream question, there is a REAL expensive automotive paint you can buy that replicates mirror finish. Do a Google on mirror finish paint.

I re-painted our AC cover and used a plastic primer and silver spray paint - resuls below. Doesn't match exactly but works for the roof.
