This one is hard to match, with nothing in another brand landing close in the same finish, the nearest being Silver Grey No.28 from AK Interactive at 67 percent in a different finish class. Brass Balls is a light muted metallic gold with a warm undertone. To deepen it, Galvanised Steel is the darker step in the same P3 Paints range. For a true match, stick with the original; cross-brand substitutes will read as a different color.

What is the closest equivalent to P3 Paints Brass Balls?
The closest same-finish match is AK Interactive Silver Grey No.28 at 67% color similarity.
What finish is Brass Balls?
Brass Balls is a metallic paint with a gold tone and a reflective finish. Because the shine comes from metal flake, a flat paint can match the color and still be wrong for the job, which is why cross-finish matches here are references rather than swaps.
What do I highlight and shade Brass Balls with?
Shade Brass Balls with Galvanised Steel in the same P3 Paints range. For highlights, mix in a lighter tone or move to a brighter paint in the lane.
