paint colour????

I know there has been a few posts on here already regarding paint colours but I've searched all the recommended websites and still have had no luck. I'm looking to paint my chrome rad two seater Opal Blue. I know it's not strictly correct for the car but it is an austin colour from the right time period and I'm not precious about 100% accuracy. I am however having trouble sourcing the paint. I've found a company who can supply the paint and have virtually every other Austin 7 colour available but not Opal Blue. Can anyone help with more details of the paint, colour mix, even a photo of a car in this colour that would assist with matching. Any help would be greately appreciated.

cheers,

Re: paint colour????

Is this anything like the colour you are looking for?

Third row down, third across, is listed as opal blue -it is a sheet of plastic though!

Best wishes,

Re: paint colour????

Thanks Hugh, Just had a reply from the company to say that a sales rep just made up the name for the paint. The search continues.
