What is the Best Lite Blue Color??????

I have been thinking of switching from the medium blue to more of a baby or powder blue, so please send some pics of yer fav & thanks!!!

 

Periwinkle.

OK so whats the deal with whats the best color posts here lately. The best of any color is the one you like.

Never the less I like periwinkle. Tell you what I don't like is Richard Petty Blue (yes it is a color you can buy), nothing personal I met him once and he treated me like he knew me all his life, the color just makes me queezy.

 

just looking for different opinions & maybe a pic or 2...its alot easier than sitting & looking through a chip book.

 

one word...
Live Wire.

 

What is the best topping on a pizza???
It's all objective.

 

no, i think its universal. the best topping on pizza is cheese. period. this is not up for debate.

 

I was thinking of going with a straight color-no flake or pearl..for some reason it just looks elegant or maybe my meds are kickin in finally!!!!

 

I really like the baby blue metallic that you are finding on Lexus SUV's and Ford cars in the past few years. I'm going to go that direction on my '32 when it's ready. Really nice color and I appreciate that I can see it on a car in person and not on a swatch. I don't trust swatches.

 

Chirp!

 

black.

 

www.restorationshop.com has 2 shades of light blue. One is Diamond Blue and the other one is Glacier Blue (not to be confused with Glacier Blue Metallic, which looks different) Go to the site and check it out. Their prices are resonable.

 

i painted some fenders on a '48 ford ice cream truck once that the customer wanted powder blue. we ended up buying white and adding blue to it to achieve the right shade.

 

My two favorite blues, I don't know the name of the first, but I like it.


and Marina blue.

 

Bug Blue..................

 

I used "Spinnaker Blue" on my 48 chev. pickup. It's a solid light blue that was used on Ford Crown Vics , ******s and Aerostar vans from 1984-88 or so.

There is Ford "3-B" blue (from the early 1970s), simply the best light blue I've ever seen on any car, and there is also "Bahama Blue", which is a darker blue but looks great on cars.

 

Petty Electric Blue!!

 

Yup, Carolina Blue.

Light enough to be light but dark enough to not look ****ter.

is too, I like a good cheese pizza so don't get me wrong but a good garbage pizza that's where its at.

OK back to opinion on paint color, choose one and I'll try and like it. My personal choice leans towards blues on the lavender end of the spectrum, but past that I really prefer blues that are so dark that look black when the light isn't hitting them.

But as I stated periwinkle.

 

Your best bet is to go down to your local automotive paint distributor/mixer and look through his sample books.Computer screens can't tell you what a shade will actually look like. Light blue is my favorite color,specifically the one that came on mid 50s Fords,check it out in the sample books.

MMM... Best fast food pizza around Motown is Jets! I just might order one tonight. It's the cheesiest!!

 

I had a 69 Chevy shortbed that was Sky Blue. Nice color. A girlfriend had an 80 ford truck that was also light blue.

 

I still like Petty Blue a lot. Dodge B5 blue is pretty slick also!

 

I thought B5 blue was Petty blue...live and learn, also if you guys have some pics that would be fanfreakintastic!!!!!

 

B1 sky blue for a '73... I'm very partial to it. Nason has a nice fleet color that is very close in single stage.
