I think its marine blue. Try google. Or your local garage/motor factor/halfords should have access to colour charts. You should have a VIN plate under the bonnet and it will have year etc, and colour code

You could give it to George our one eyed painter, he`s good at blue :biggrin:

Dont shake his hand or turn your back on him or he will give them a dusting as well.

Scrape up a parked police car in front of witnesses and drive off slowly.

The paint code should appear on your charge sheet.

If you're painting all the lot it doesn't matter what blue it is. Just get a bucket of gloss from Wickes and a 6" roller, it's only a Land Rover.

The paint code is there to help you purchase the original colour so you can spray a section only to find out find out how much your vehicle has faded to a different hue of blue.

Also known as Windjammer Blue too I think.

 

 

 

On the vin plate under the bonnet there should be a paint code too.

 

 

Ha ha Chris how many have I seen without a code stamped on the vin plate !

Loads probably Twisty :thumbup1:

 

 

 

I got our local motosave to order me in a couple of rattlecans of arles blue for my old 90 (not the usual off the shelf rattlecans but the good stuff) and it was a perfect match - admittedly the one and only time it's matched, but it did :001_smile:

 

It's surprising just how well you can bring back faded paintwork if you use the right stuff and do it properly, especially on something with plain colours and thick paint like a landrover.
