Default Re: Andalusite Blue

My 29 Tudor was painted with a Ditzler acrylic lacquer Andalusite blue in 1980 and still holds its beautiful color. In shade it looks blue and/or almost black, in direct sunshine it shows a kind of lavender rose undertone on highlights. I still have a can and a half left over, which is still good and I can still use it for very minor touchups. The only readable note written one one can is "121". It does not even come close to the color shown in tinkirk’s brother-in-law’s roadster. This was matched to an original spot on an inside part of the car.
