Paul,
I started a new topic for easier future reference. See image below from the SWF catalog.
Stoddard sells a satin silver that is pretty close to the original finish - - -

If you are chasing perfection and cost doesn't matter - - -
Glasurit 55
Code: M1076A
Color: Silver
Stock #171123-0-0-CMX
That paint code info is fifteen years old so hopefully still available.

Re: Wipers for 1954
Interesting that the Speedster blades appear to be longer than the coupe and cabrio. Would have expected the other way around.
I have some NOS ones I would be happy to dig out if somebody needs more guidance on the color. From memory these have very little metallic and or more grey than the typical bright silver sparkling metallic. They also have a nice thick coat of clear
