For the truly obsessed, get your paint here.

Otherwise paint it flat white and be happy.  The big concern with metallic
paints is that they tend to be shiny/glossy and could cook the feed.  Flat
white tends to scatter light in all directions rather than focusing it on
your feedhorn and downconverter.
