Hi everyone
Recently picked up an original Taito Space Invaders machine and I'm trying to match the paint on it at the minute without much success at all. Does anyone know anything about the paint, i.e. a paint code or name or anything!? Seems like a halfway house between navy blue and purple!?
Video below is the exact same as my one if you're not sure. This may be for UK/Ireland European guys as apposed to our American Midway cousins :)

Ok thanks. Still no success so far. I'd love to get it as close as possible for touch up work but I'm giving up hope on it at this stage. I'd prefer to keep it as it is, bruises and all, instead of painting it badly. If anyone anywhere would care to chime in with help and advise please do so as it would be most appreciated.
