Default Original paint color

I am trying to clean up a 1986 Yamaha Tri-z and I want to get the original paint color in a spray can and I can't find where to get it. Any ideas????

There are a couple of auto paint stores around here that will put your paint into an aerosol can. If you can find the paint, check around and see if they do that too.

I made a box for my ATV and wanted it the same colour as the bike so I took a section of cowling to Home Depot and had them scan it in their colour computer. They mix up a can of paint and it turned out pretty good. You might be able to do this and put it in one of those electric sprayer's.

I built a box for the back of my ATV and wanted it the same colour as the bike. I took a section of the cowling to Home Depot and they scanned it in their colour computer. They mixed of a can of paint and it came out pretty good. I know this is not spay paint but you could put it in one of those electric sprayers.
