Testor paints mix well and come in gloss and flat. The gloss ones match
the case for gloss fairly well and adjusting tint with a bit of black
and white can go a long ways to matching a color. The limit is the
patience and eye of the mixer.

When matching colors I learned (in the Collins paint shop) that gloss
affected the eye looking for match nearly as much as tint.
