Well, you're actually NOT going to want to use paint. It's pretty important to use a dye, rather then a paint. Paints will flake off, where the dyes will be a permanent bond, and will keep the original texture better.

Just search around for some dyes, and they all should be adequate. Maybe someone can recommend some for you. If you're looking to paint more in the blue, good luck matching the color...

Edit: this was a couple threads down from yours:
