Yamaha blue powder coat match

[drew24]

Does anyone know a powder that's close to the Yamaha blue? I tried searching and came up with a couple possibilities but wondering if anyone tried any. Thanks

I used Yamaha blue on my wife's viper from all powder paints and its just about dead on.

The closest I seen was dormant blue with clear on it. The app Yamaha blue is not purple enough .close but no exact.

Will check that one out Pete. I did notice it could use a hair purple in it but pretty close.

I like the looks of the dormant blue. I will try that. Looks pretty close. Is it best with a high gloss or semi gloss clear?

Also which brand of the dormant blue? Thanks

I used SNAPON blue back when I did my skidframe

So I called PBTP and had them send some blues that were somewhere around the Dormant blue color. Iced Indigo is a direct match. Dormant blue is close but doesn't have any of the sparkle in it.

That looks pretty close. Looks like that is a new powder.

The last picture in post #10. At the bottom of the sample compare the sled to it. Virtually no difference. The only difference is one is freshly coated and the other is 16 year old paint.

For those that are thinking about ordering, place your order during the cold/cooler months. Keeps it from clumping.
