Tree,

Now why would you go and do that when there are numerous matches for just about every Munsell known to mankind already out there? You could have just walked in and said "I'd like a quart of Winter Mist (or Winter Mountain or whatever) in a flat enamel"?
The grays I mixed are much darker than the two you mention, and I like to do things the hard way sometimes too. But mostly, the locals that mix my paint have messed my paint up several times. I was able to use some tinted wall paint that was left over from painting my HT room, so I saved a few bucks as well. I was also experimenting with sheen by adding semi-gloss. I used over 60% semi-gloss with no hotspotting that I could see.
