Painting radiator pipes...Mario Bros. green...anyone have a paint code?
Ok so I don't have the money to "finish" my basement so I'm trying to make it look as nice as possible. I've repainted the mortar and the wood above it and I plan on painting the floors with a nice exopy garage grade paint (what a pain to clean and etch 90 yr old concrete). Phet had actually mentioned in a post I made long ago that I should paint my radiator pipes Mario Bros. green. My wife said the same thing today so I think I'm going to go for it to add a cool effect. Two questions...
1.) does anyone have any suggestions for how to obtain a color as close as possible to Mario Bros. pipe green? Does anyone have a paint code?
2.) So obviously radiator pipes get hot...but not like appliance hot. what kind of paint should I use and from where should I get it? If I have to use a special paint I'm hoping I can still get it color matched. I'd like to do a glossy finish.
any suggestions/help would be appreciated. Pic below...
Thanks dudes!
