Bilge Paint?

I need to touch-up a few areas of bilge paint. I know it doesn't matter, but I would like to match the grey colour. So do I choose:
International Danboline
Blakes (Hempel)
Epifanes

Any of them. They are all similar formulations. I used Blakes(Hempel) last time.

Fairly sure the original isn't paint, but flowcoat. Which is a two part polyester resin that is applied with a brush and contains wax so results in a cured, smooth surface.
Something much like this (no idea if it's an exact match for the Bavaria grey):
