Didn't really use that much pressure

It doesn't take much. That is why I discourage using it!;)

The paint is a gray color with a course texture
Does anyone have a suggestion on something that would be close

Got the base primed but it's just to hot to do much else
Shop is over 105 (112 today)
Have it 90% dismantled so when ever this weather gets back to normal will
keep painting

So far so good! Are you going with a similar color to the original?

Undecided.I like the gray color But I do have a gallon of wrinkle coat but its black
Will just keep priming everything for now

Mask off appropriate surfaces!;)

Yes do!

It's a real pain to get that self-etching primer off the surfaces that it shouldn't be on because you missed a spot in the masking.
