Paint help!

I am currently looking to paint my truck in John Deere Blitz Black. I want to paint the whole truck blitz black and the upper part of the cab white. Here's my question. What white paint has very similer texture to blitz black? Thanks in advance for any help

Re: Paint help!

Mike , welcome to the board you may have to do a test panel or a sprayout panel and finish it just as you plan to do the truck. once it is done the paint store can help you determine the gloss rate of the paint that you would need to go with the Blitz Black. The paint mixer can add flattner to the paint to get the correct amount of gloss your looking for. But, the sprayout panel will be a key element in the success of this because they need the panel as a starting point. Jim
