Default Spray paint that matches blue powdercoat?

I am looking for spray paint that matches blue powdercoat that Livorsi and most other use for bezels, cup holders etc.

There has to be something out there that matches or is pretty close. (Merc blue does not)

Thanks

You might need to take something removable to your local bigger Auto Body store that has the "paint reader computer". They should be able to mix something to match, and put it in a pressurized spray bottle for you.

the color i have found that looks closest (and better actually) is PPG's 5357 Chrysler Intense Blue (OEM Chry code is PB3 i believe). You might even have a shot at finding that in an aerosol being a fairly widely used OEM color.

Once you find the code or color you want this place http://www.automotivetouchup.com/spr...t_matched.aspx can mix an exact match in aerosol cans . I have used this company many times, the product is high quality and they use a high quality spray nozzle. Just be sure you order the clear coat to go with it.

Dupli-Color makes a blue "anodized" color called MetalCast that goes over a gray metallic base or aluminum. VHT also makes an anodized blue color coat. Both are basically just a candy blue enamel. The VHT matched the blue Powdercoated/fusioncoated bezels and cupholders decent enough as long as the parts weren't right next to each other.

I use the same and agree with the above.
