You might already know this, but the real suits used some kind of photoreactive paint. Off film they almost look like a green aqua color. This is how the suits looked before filmed.


For colors that more closely resemble what you see on screen I would definitely for starters some kind of

Silver/metallic paint
metallic blue or solid blue for hues
metallic purple or solid purple for hues
gloss black for soft parts midsection/gloves etc..
automotive clear coat for finish

Hansing used gold metallic paint for his suits but I thought it looked bad but to each is own. You might have to play around with paints until you find something you like.
