You could probably get some at an AV specialty store. You can also make your own fairly easily. This forum has some good info on making your own paint or using some commercial off the shelf tints.

I used a sheet of white laminate (Formica) on a wood frame with a border made from trim. I prefer that over paint since you really have to get the paint smooth and my painting skills suck. Formica is also a lot easier to clean, and looks more like a professional screen. It only cost me about $80 to make.
