Default Re: Is this Washington Blue?

The original Washington Blue was very dark and in certain light condition
was almost black in appearance. I would recommend going to a local auto paint
supplier in your area and asking them to advise you on what PPG considers to
be their current offering for this shade. Many years ago when I did my 32 5win
I wanted it to be Washington Blue and ended up with a shade of blue that could
have been darker. So, in essence, I would advise taking your time finding the
correct shade as PPG and Xalta (formerly Dupont) shades vary tremendously.
The blue on the truck in the photo also seems too light to me.
