MeatMan Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 (edited) Hey folks. I'm planning a future build and I want to paint it a very dark blue - nearly black.I've seen a Midnite Blue Pearl sold by HOK that's not quite it but is the closest I've seen. http://www.tcpglobal.com/HOKPBC104.jpgAnyone found anything like what I've described?Oh yeah, I'm an airbrush newbie so mixing paints isn't something I'm thinking of doing.Thanks.

GMCMAN52 Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 I'm working on a 65 Comet that has the same color that your looking for. I purchased a can of Dupli-Color True Blue paint. It's a Ford color that almost black with a slight blue tint. The number for the paint is BFM0358 True Blue (L2) Replaces T298..........right off the cap......

Monty Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 If you're still looking, you may want to check out Tamiya's TS-55 Dark Blue. To me it looks like the blue on the Chicago Bears' helmets. Here's an article where it was used on a Ferrari kit.http://italianhorses.net/Gallery/Tamiya/Tam360/360.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The TS-55 looks black under moderate light, but the blue flake jumps out under bright light. Really pretty paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
