I've got some of the newer greenies that are in rough shape. want to clean them up and repaint them, wondering what brand spray paint matches the closest?

I seem to remember in the 60s that zinc chromate(sp?) was a primer for aluminum, and that seemed close.
Take one of the heads with you to the hardware store and see what is close. Most anything you find will be enamel which won't last if you shoot the head a lot. But for hunting it should only be shot once-right? Of course you could break away from the herd and paint them red, pink, yellow, brown, or? Pearson Switchblades were white, yellow, brown, green.

I think the Bear Razorhead paint was called Aspen Green

You can try swinging by a local body shop supply house and take a look at SEM 39693 light green self-etching primer in a rattle can, it is a little darker but will adhere to bare metal very well, way better than regular spray paint.  Some larger supply houses will also custom mix paint to match your Razorheads and put it in a spray can for you.
