I'm looking for paint that's a close match to the color of the Chromel-R material used on the gloves and boots of the Apollo EVA spacesuit.

What paint is the closest match that I can use?

I use Tamiya XF-56 Metallic Gray. X-10 Gunmetal works well for a shade with XF-16 Flat Aluminum for highlights.
