Default Please help me with this color!

Need to know exactly what color paint is on this engine and paint code. It was from a post made by JETBOAT BRIAN back in 2006. I tried his profile but he hasnt been on since 2011. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. I absolutely LOVE this color.

Teal! I know, there are a hundred shades of teal. Take a painted part to an auto body shop and go through the paint books to find a match and have them mix you some. I've done that before and found the perfect match in a Volkswagon color book!

Most of the nicer auto paint shops have a "computer" scanner that can scan it and get real close on base mix, then you can tweak it brighter or lighter or change it to whatever you want.
