Can anyone tell me which paint I need for an SX outdrive on a 2001 Glastron (sorry don't have the serial number handy)

I went to west marine and purchased Moeller 025488 Paint Engine Volvo 12 oz. Stern Drive Gray. It's too light of a gray and not a match at all.

Before I try again and spend $50, Is this the stuff I need? Thanks

Got it, thanks guys. I picked up a can of the SX Silver, sounds like it is going to match, will know for sure in about an hour when I get home.

I tried two different shades of Rustoleum, then the wrong Volvo Penta gray now I think I finally have it. Remember that scene in Indiana Jones when he finally finds the Holly Grail?
