I’ve always heard it referred to as “ford corporate blue” and just “ford blue”but can’t find such a reference.

I just bought a half find can of blue that looked like it matched the crest in my radiator shroud fairly well. In 30 years no one has ever commented on it being wrong on my bumper clamp.

How close is Ford Corporate Blue to Washington Blue?
I have also found that Ford Engine Dark Blue is very close to Washington Blue

There’s numerous codes for ford “engine” blue. But, mot sure closeness to the Model A badge color.
Also, lots of Ford Blue engine paint available including spray cans.
