Chris,
My 67 B is mineral blue. I've ordered touch up from Tower Paint
(800-779-6520) that's pretty close to my 8-year-old paint job. And when I
had to have a door repainted last summer due to an attempted theft, I
went to a local shop and they put a scope on my car and came up with a
amazingly close match. I have a few suggestions if you want to get the
car mineral blue:
1) Call Tower paint and order a bottle of touch up or ca of spray. Then
make a sample panel for your paint shop to match.
2) What the heck, order the paint from Tower.
3) I could look through my records and give you the formula the local
shop came up with for my car. It's for Chroma One acrylic urethane (Which
is all I could get in the S.F. Bay area.) I know it's a match for an
8-year-old mineral blue, but I think it'll get you closer to where you
want to be than Teal will.
Let me know if you want the formula. Good Luck.
