How to colour match Jason windows brown windows?

terrytoons

Hi there, I would like to do some fine touch up paint repairs to the inside of the window frames where over the years with painting over runs etc there are some bare metal and some where the paint won't scratch off. Thought I would apply sparingly to cover any unsightlyness preferably with a fine brush. Not keen on spraying as it is very minor.

Question really is whether Bunnings sell a liquid paint in small can to match as well as possible the Jason Windows brown powdercoat colour of the early eighties?

Hello @terrytoons 

Thanks for sharing your question about painting your window frames. If you are only after a touch up, I suggest getting a small paint sample from your window, preferably the size of a 10c coin if possible. Bring this paint chip to the store and ask the paint specialist for a paint match.   

Once you have your paint, I recommend using painter's tape to mask the side of your wall to prevent getting any paint on it. I suggest cleaning the window frame with Selleys Sugar Soap Wall Cleaning Wipes - 25 Pack before you start painting.
