New QD Blue Same As Old B5 Blue?

[threewood]

I think I finally decided on a color. My 69 GTX was originally A4 Silver, but I am not a big fan as it is a greenish looking silver and too many cars today are silver. So B5 Blue is what i want.

Looking at Sikkens Lesonol, Wanda or U Tech, but their database does not go back far enough to get a result from B5. But they do have a code for QD Surf Blue which has B5 next to it on the computer listed under a late model Dodge Challenger. My question is, are they basically the same color?

I looked at that too and its in my top 3, to me it has kind of a satin look to it from a distance which I thought would be kind of different.

Check out this website: www.paintref.com
It has the colors listed for cars and trucks going back decades and usually some of the formula numbers as well, including B5 blue.

I've been on that site but the issue is that the Sikkens database comes up with no result when entering B5 for 1969 Plymouth.
