                        I've been looking for a paint match system for a long time.  The systems that are in the paint department of Lowe's or Home depot might do the job, however, they cost too much.  I looked it up on the internet once and decided to mix and match by eye.

                        I am looking for a way to take an RGB code and figure out what combination of paint I can mix to get even close to the correct value.  Is there a chart somewhere that lists the available colors from various manufacturers with the RGB values of each paint.  CMYK would be OK too.  I can do the conversion if needed.  I've been wearin' out da Google and haven't foudn anything yet.

                         Thanks, folks.
