Sunseeker Blush

[choppy]

Greetings all,

Would anyone know the colour /REL (Or very similar) for Eddie Jordan's yacht Blush ?- I have a project (Not boating) that it would really suit, remember seeing her on her trials - really quite different. Manufacturer could'nt/would'nt help.

Thanks as always.

Might be easier to just buy the standard RAL colour sample book, these are pretty accurate:

Looks like Awlgrip 'Light Blue'...

Looks like Awlgrip Aqua Mist to me.

(boat sold in July)

Great thanks I'll look into those would awlgrip be used on a boat like that ?

looks similar to a Pantone colour = Sky 2707C https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=pantone+pale+blue+colours&rlz=1C1GGGE_en-gbGB475GB475&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj70qXfjp7XAhVIBBoKHX1kAXMQ_AUICigB&biw=1745&bih=863#imgrc=LRT-Os7EO3EnmM:

Ok close and thanks - this was so close to being white you had to take a 2nd look to decide it was blue (ish) hence interest

Yes. It's highly likely to be awlgrip or alexseal. It's definitely painted, not raw gel coat.

Was definitley Awlgrip.
MouldCam would know if you wanted to chase it down 100%.
Hard to say for certain but my money would be on Ice Blue.

Light blue seems a little too blue, Aqua mist is too green. Could well have been a custom colour specifically for Mr J.


Edit: 100% - Awlgrip Ice Blue

In the Itama fraternity, Du Pont - are the go to products are used for painting .

It’s originally blue gel coat ,but when refurbishing they repaint them .Not necessary blue .

Apparently the Du Pont stuff is easier to to touch up minor future scratch’s than the Awalgrip stuff ,so ,I am told .
The Yards arround Roma use Du Pont .
So it might be worth investigating ease of “ touch up “ before committing ?
Assuming they do an “ ice blue “ equivalent of course ?

Once painted with Du Pont — apparently you don,t have to do all this annual wax n polish malarkey like you do with gel coat .
