Painting a Nintendo Dualsystem. I have never painted a cab before, so I am sorry for being neurotic. I have searched over the last couple hours and am having a hard time figuring exactly what to buy.

It is currently the original grey finish with bondo work applied. Should I prime it and with what?

I guess I plan to roll the paint on. What finish should I use, semi-gloss?

I have found paint codes for Nintendo Blue, Red, and Orange. Paint choices for Nintendo metal. However, nothing for black and grey.

Should I just color match, or does anyone have a code?

Thanks in advance,

Mike
 
I ended up buying Sherwin Williams Satin Oil - Gray Matters SW 7066

Best match to control panel grey.

I saw on one of the thread's Phetishboy said do not prime, so I am going to give it a shot rolling the paint right after sanding.
 
If you use Sherwin Williams go with either Pro Classic or All Surface Enamel oil based.
Depending on the color you want you most likely can only use one or the other.
When I painted my cab DK blue I could only use either water based Pro Classic or oil based All Surface Enamel to get the proper color match.
