[Boatanchors] Hammarlund paint.

[Jack Taylor]

I took a piece into ACE for color matching.  It was a near perfect match,
just a slight difference in texture when examining the old and the new in
bright sunlight for comparison.  Only part of the cabinet needed paint.
Used latex water based paint over a primer coat of rust inhibitor paint.
Ace sells a Co2 glass air sprayer jar which in my case, worked out very
nicely.  I thinned the paint with a lil bit of water so it would provide a
nice even coat.

I've found that latex flows more evenly and looks better than the regular
spray can paints.
