GRAYISH-BLACK Flat
Dark gray-black coloration with a flat appearance. This duplicates the appearance of the early original Colt AR-15/M-16 finish. This is the same product that is purchased from us by the U.S. Military to refinish Colt M-16's.

Yeah; but the problem is that it doesn't refinish them the same color they originally came in.

Re the original question, the colors will probably be close, but even brand new Colt SP1s and 2s often came with slightly mismatched colors, so there's no guarentee.

I just purchased  an M16A1 upper from CDNN.  I wonder if the gray-black would be good for my DPMS lower to match the colors up better?  8oz. bottle enough?

thx,
