    I buy my stuff at powder by the pound.
    I haven't used the blue I bought yet.....mirror blue.
    I have used the red I bought....mirror red.

    I can say that I like the red on my son's lil atc70. I didn't do too much thinking on the blue just ordered it.
    Sorry if this doesn't help too much but you can always check out the eastwood or pbtp forums, lots of helpful people there that may be able to give you an exact match!

    Got me thinking about this one so I started looking around...
    I am still in favor of mirror blue, but there are some fairly decent pictures of different blues on pbtp's web site.
    Here is an example of mirror blue (bottom of page mazda valve cover)

    Here are the different shades of blue at pbtp, though its always hard to tell without seeing them in person on a piece of metal. May give ya some options though.

    Heres a picture of a blue atv frame with electric blue on eastwood, page 2 (i think eastwood electric blue is the same thing as pbtp mirror blue)

    Let me know how you make out, cause I'm sure you will get to before I do.
    Good Luck


    Or you could go with reflex blue from Columbia Coatings....didn't see that earlier. Just took a look and it looks good to me, so does their super mirror blue, seems like its the same as pbtp mirror blue and eastwood electric blue.
    Honda250sx do you have any pictures of something you've coated with it?

    Thanks!!, Sorry I spelled your name wrong I'd like to order powder by Sunday.... No biggie though, I grab stuff all the time

    Are all 3 even identical?? - OEM shock, seat and boots?? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm

    The vinyl marine fabric we do the seats with is a nice match. I like that Blue and the Krylon (EDOG) True Blue - I'd take that in powder!

    Jeff, I walked right past your post.... Reflex Blue?? Got any pics??!! Whattchya gotz!!

    Of course Steve....

    Order the reflex.
    Its gas/oil resistant.
    It's a damn good match.

    Would I steer you wrong?

    If you don't like it I'd even buy it off you. Cause I need to put in a HUGE AZZ order myself.

    I'll call the place that did my PC to find out what blue they used on my frame. I can bring over a piece to see if its the color your lookng for.
