Hello to All,

This is from an old post and I thought some of the newer people may be
interested in the post again PLUS I have a question for anyone out there
you knows about this sort of thing.  When it says, (US for instance)
white blue on white, what does that mean?  White blue stripe(s) on a
white car?  Don't know for sure, anyone out there know the answer?

Joe

A little searching in the archives produced the following info, posted by
