Swan blue

Hi

Can anyone tell me the colour code, or the International Paint colour that I should use to paint the stripe near the top of the topsides, just below the toerail on my 36?

International has Medium Blue, Largo Blue, Ocean Blue and Sapphire Blue. On-line it looks like Largo (Y4100) might be right, but I don't want to trust my monitor on this...

Thanks for any pointers!

Dear Olle
Pls see the post on this thread dated 17 June 2010.
There the blue colour is defined for Awlgrip, and you need to find the corresponding International.
Kind regards
Lars

Olle,
both International and Awlgrip have color sample cards which you can simply hold next to the hull to check for a match. At least with Awlgrip, there are small holes in the center of a color area so you can see your paint surrounded by the sample.
When we asked for the sheet, both dealers advised us that I should have my girlfriend look for the match, as women have much more color-sensitive eyes than men (unfortunate, but true).
Best regards, Martin
