Gunsmithing Cerakote to Match Vortex Razor

Re: Cerakote to Match Vortex Razor

Burnt bronze with a little patriot brown?

I think it was here on the hide where someone said they had a guy who mixed up a batch of Duracoat to match the Razor's color. I had a pretty good match.
 
I am trying to match a vortex razor as well.
I looked at a bunch of swatches, and the patriot brown is almost exactly the same color as my razor, but it is flat and doesn't match the shine the anodize has. The burnt bronze matches the sheen of the anodize but it is lighter and not as dark brown.
I will look at the tungsten grey again, but my razor must be very brown, because patriot brown was the closest match and tungsten grey was not close at all.
Is there a way to add flake to the patriot brown?
 
Its NOT burnt bronze haha, although this color is pretty cool. I can see where some tungten mixed in, if you got lucky, would make it close though.

That pic does make it look brighter than it is though, I think this would be a closer representation of the brightness of the color...
