Off The Shelf Paint for Ivory Steering Column

I have a 1963 C10 and the steering column and (deluxe) wheel are the stock ivory color. Has anyone found a good off the shelf spray can match for the ivory?

Thanks, Cris

Rustoleum canvas white is kind of a vanilla milkshake color. Hard to find it in quarts but pretty plentiful in spray cans. Shot this one with quarts from a gun but the spray can is the exact same color.

Thanks Dave. The paint on the column appears to be satin, not gloss. Rust-oleum's selection of satin paints is not extensive. I'm still digging but if anyone has sprayed a 63 column, let me know.

Gloss enamel turns satin-ish if you rub it down hard with red rubbing compound.
