    Default What color blue?

    I did a lot of welding and bracing on my table and would like to get the right color blue. Does anyone know what brand and color is available in a spray can to do some touch up?

    Thanks

    It's always reminded me of Ford engine blue. There is a lighter and a darker shade of it.

    If you can detach a small piece somewhere and take it to your paint store they have a machine that can analyze and match the paint. Probably have to brush it on as opposed to finding a spray match. But i believe it is a powdercoat and it might be hard to match.

    Rustoleum 'Painter's Touch' Navy Blue #1922 matches very closely.

    Check your area for paint and autobody supply stores. Many can match a color sample and load it in aerosol cans for you. We recently did that spiffing up a gantry crane in our new exotic stone showroom.

    Cost about $15-$20 per can.
