"Brownstone" Paint
Does anybody know a specific color name of a paint that is used to match the color and "feeling" of brownstone? I cannot afford to restore my stoop yet, so until then I would at least like it to look tidy and natural. Maybe the best route would be to remove existing peeling "brown" paint and leave it alone. Any thoughts?

I just did my stoop with Masonry Brown from Benjamin Moore. It is a close match.

After someone graffitied our painted brownstone we went to Pinchik to get a paint match. Although I had selected something from Benjamin Moore, Pinchik had a more perfect color already available. They just grabbed it off a shelf behind the counter. Now you can hardly tell where we had to repaint. If you paint the treads of the stair, make sure to mix some sand in the paint for traction.
