Your everyday run of the mill mat black should be pretty close.  If you were touching up the frame or something you might want to be a little more specific.

clean with gas,scotch brite it all,wipe down with thinner,let air dry and dust with some cheap readily available paint so you can easily keep it touched up.

i wanna pull my bike apart and powdercoat the frame, but i just do have the guts. im somewhat mechanical, but man...that just seems like a monumental task.

I took mine down to the bare frame for powdercoat......take it apart in groups as much as possible.  It's really not that bad.
