Using Scanner as color analyzer

I have always had trouble matching colors (as in matching paint to a color). Maybe having a touch of color-blindness is responsible, maybe not.

So I always must ask my wife, who finally made a comment about using an analyzer like she did when in the photo business. Well, a scanner is an analyzer and I have one of those.

I scanned a part, to which I added a blotch of the closest paint I can find. GIMP tells me (I think) that I need to add a little yellow and a little black to the paint to match the part.

Has anyone had success (or am I the only one with this particular trouble)? More importantly, has anyone tried and NOT had success?
