trafalger blue

had some paint made up yesterday in celly.

took the glove box lid in and he matched the blue perfectly
normally all the trafalger blues you get from suppliers have a green tinge.

the code is BLMC-37BU if anyone needs to get any from Jawel paints in the midland they supplied it.

cost me £90+vat mind for 5 lt in 2x2.5 lt tins so i can keep some for a while

Wow - that's costly - but you will only need one tin to spray a Traveller!

I think paint code BU-37 is what BMC/BLMC used for both shades of Trafalgar Blue, hence the confusion. I've been told that if you ask a paint factor to mix up that code, they'll supply the earlier (pre-1967) shade, which is the one that has a very slight green tint to it.
