Another member here has told me that he sprayed some Rust-Oleum metallic charcoal on some of the gray part of his DP Deluxe to see how it looks. He said the color is spot on. He said the only way he can see the difference is by looking at it from an angle which allows him to see the Rust-Oleum has more gloss. Rust-Oleum also has a color called black night. It's a metallic paint and from what I can tell it may be very similar to the black pearl that others have been talking about.

Was there ever any consensus on the best black to use for the ANH helmet ? I'm planning to use a spray can and would like to get it as close as possible using UK paints.
