That's a terrific paint scheme. I noticed the gulf blue in the pictures above all vary a bit. In a recent construction project that was painted a gulf like Blue, I couldn't how many test strips we performed before honing in on the right one.

I noticed the samething Jim, it seems that the colors do vary. I guess I'll have to hunt down the actual color codes when that time comes. Hopefully soon!!!

The colors can also vary depending on the time of day, and the settings on the camera etc.
