In the past we used Floquil Tie Brown to paint flex track. As we know, this is no longer available but Rust-Oleum just introduced a roof accessory paint called Weathered Wood. It is a perfect match for tie brown, its low cost ($4.77 at one Home Depot, comes in 12 oz size, sticks to flex track and has a fine pigment so does not hide detail.
If anyone has tried this please leave a comment with thoughts on your experience with it.
Update
I've been told that this paint is no longer available. I disagree. Home Depot has it and if they have it, it's probably at other retailers.

If you have an idea for a blog post here, let me know. If I can comment on it, I will or I'll see if someone else can and post it.
Testor Model Master Paints has an acrylic version of Railroad Tie Brown but is quite a bit more expensive when compared with the amount of spray paint in the Rust-Oleum can.
