Earthshaker - what colour blue paint? Anyone sprayed one?

[Mfresh]

I will shortly be doing up an Earthshaker cab. Just wondered if anyone has found a good match for the blue of the cabinet. (Probably talking the darker blue of the non-prototype to match new decals)

Thanks

Is Earthshaker the same blue as Whirlwind?
If so Rustoleum Brilliant blue or deep blue gloss (slightly darker) are a decent match.

Get RAL Swatch:

RAL K7 Classic Colour Swatch 213 colours | eBay

The RAL K7 Classic Colour Fan Deck is a fantastic product when attempting to match colours. Each standard page displays 5 colours, with a total of 213 colours displayed. Making it perfect when attempting to identify or match colours.

And compare it to non faded area. Then find some car paint seller. This way you will get best results rather then going through ready mixed paints.

P.S. If you are planning to get the artwork for it then compare it with the decals. This way there wont be any colour discrepancy.

I found a spray can which was the EXACT blue they used on the cab. I’ll try and track down where I got it from.

Excellent. I love Painters Touch spray paint.
