Default Got a Washington Blue Sample, what you think?

From best I can tell, I think this is pretty close! From my local PPG shop.

Only thing I could find for a clean test panel was a spare wheel on a Cultivator, which is yellow by the way, this will stand out this summer when I'll probably have to use it...ha.

Hi Everyone, Farmboy, Washington Blue is a pretty vague color. There's not much way to go wrong.

This was right after it was sprayed, but went down awhile ago and it still is shiny. it looks like single stage to me? but i'm leaning on base and clear when the time comes.

I'm just curious why you want to do it in base / clear?

I'm restoring it mostly original, but i'm not against adding a little bling. I want it to look good, and want it to last!

If you want it to last, then go with PPG Concept. It's a single stage urethane
which is what I used on my 32 coupe close to 20 years ago and it still looks as
good as the day it was shot.

What color did you spray it over? Looks like a light base color is under it in the pic.
