Paint matching Kato 10-6

I would like to patch an existing CZ car to this.



Would anyone have recommendations of which paint to use that best matches Kato's stainless steel cars?

If you already have a CZ painted 10-6, it will be easier to slowly rub the lower panel with 90% Alcohol and a q-tip. But I do have a mix at home I found in NSR that I'll post when I get home that uses Tamiya paint.

After several runs of this train by Kato I'm surprised they haven't done this car.

I would also get one already painted and remove the name and redo it.  Much easier and less of a hastle.
