Not a big fan of WalMart's cheap-at-any-cost policy
but was there for something else and bought a can of
Rustoleum Textured 7222 Forest Green.
It not only is an exceptionally close match to the
original Heath MR-1 Comanche receiver paint it
actually looks better!
The subtle texture adds class to the appearance.
