Help with Sapphire Blue Paint

[1690]

Does anyone know how I can get Sapphire Blue touch up paint for my '66?

A lot of the new paints/body shops do not use the old paint codes.

Thank you,
Nick

For what it's worth, even if you had the exact same paint out of the same can that the car was painted with, and you go to touch it up, it's not going to match.
Particularly with a metallic color.
You might want to try to find a local paint jobber ie a part store that mixes paints for body shops and see if they can mix it up in single stage for you.

My local auto paint supply store had some sort of camera/scanner (sort of like Home Depot has to match paint colors). They then mixed some touch up paint that was an exact match. My car was repainted/restored in the early 80's.

Perfect. Thank you
