Color, color, color-I knew this would be the hardest part

Anyone know what brand of paint Serotta uses?
I'd like to know the Imrom equivalent of Sapphire Blue.

At least I've settled on blue

I think they use PPG because they use their codes. That is standard high-end stuff for cars.

Serotta offers Sapphire Blue as a standard color. Some dealers have Serotta sample tubes, although I think now Serotta employs sample metal squares, which aren't as nice. Anyway, I would try to visit a Serotta dealer that has some tubes and the newer squares and see what you like. I've seen the Cobalt Blue and the Sapphire Blue, and my notes say(and I remember as well) that the Sapphire Blue looked darker than the Cobalt Blue, which is the opposite of what they look like in the catalog. I remember being surprised. Hopefully, a forum member who is a dealer will chime in to confirm or deny that.

Good luck.
