If anybody has a correct Healey Blue car out there I can guarantee nobody
could tell which one it was. Line up 20 Healey Blue cars at a show and they
will all be different. I have 'a tin of Healey Blue ' paint mixed to the
'correct' formula and it doesn't look right. Get something you like which
is close to Healey Blue. My previous car was painted with a Peugeot colour
straight out of the tin, which looked pretty good and has the obvious
advantage in that you know exactly what it is and can easily source more of
the same. My current car is having to be matched by eye for the repairs,
which is a real pain.
