  View original topic: Accurate Trout Blue or Bernina Blue Sherwin Williams Code?

I've seen the codes listed here:

For PPG. However I need Sherwin Williams. When I have them match the color is 1000x different.

1) does anyone by chance have the correct SW codes for trout blue or Bernina blue?

2) would either of these colors look ok with a black convertible top and black interior?

I would just pick a Sherwin Williams paint chip closest to Pacific or Bermuda Blue and go with their mix if I wanted a blue. I'd probably go with a light gray or cream with a black top? Custom tinting to please your eye is a a big waste of time/money too. IMHO

Yes but I have no idea what the actual color is to even try to match it to...

I don't have a part etc to match to.....

If you had better worded your question & posted this pic somebody could tell us what it is? My square was repainted diamond blue on the exterior & it is a close enough match to the original diamond blue interior paint.
