If you really want to be spot on, go to a special paint shop - that means NOT Bunnings - they have colour cards for all car colours ever done. About 1000 of them.

Put the cards against the board and pick the right one, then they can mix and put it in a pressure pack for you.

I was surprised when I tried to match a colour this way and the match to the colour with anti-skid on it looked okay, yet didn't match the actual colour of the board properly. In other words the anti-skid changed the way the colour appeared.

I should have sanded part of it back first and used that to match to. The end result wasn't that noticeable but could have been a little better.

Oh yeah if you have any trouble finding that kinda 'proper' paint place, the paint shop on Augusta St in Willetton does it. I think they are called Willetton Paint Supplies (unsure, been a long time)
