With the exposure to the elements, there are so many variations in colors [even on the same side of sign], that it would be hard too keep them all in stock.

I suggest you try a Hobbie Lobby or craft store. They sell small bottles/cans of paint.

I've had success with Testors Model Paint on small areas. Buy the basic color needed and others like white, black, gray and start mixing and testing certain areas till you get what you need. In my experience white will be the hardest to match.

I've also had painters who use "One Shot" sign lettering paint do work for me. That can be ordered off the internet.

Good luck,
Kim
