JD Semi Gloss is the stripe and Blitz black is the rest. This panel has been kicking around my shop for a while so it's kind of beat up. When I had the panel half semi and half blitz the semi looked better but in these shots the blitz looks really good too.

FWIW, I went with the SEM Trim paint. It was extremely close in sheen to the Krylon Semi-Flat, but I had a can of each & the SEM seemed to spray a bit better. I think I'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between them on the same car.
Thanks to everyone for the suggestions!

I have found an aerosol paint that covers great and is very durable. Its from Caterpillar. I have been using the medium gloss black, they have different sheens. You can also buy it by the gallon, and do touch ups with the aerosol if needed.
