I was on the Jamestown Distributors website looking at Pettit EasyPoxy Topside Paint & read a review that also contained a pic of the exact two colors I want to paint my boat. He used the same pettit easypoxy paint so he had to pick one of these colors on this chart, right? My eyes tell me that I'm seeing ocean blue (3248) & pearl gray (3706) on the chart of color choices for this brand. Does anyone else see what I see, if not can you tell me what you think you see? At $30 a quart I want to make sure I'm getting the same colors in the pic below.​

Re: Color blind - Need help identifying paint colors

Thanks guys for stepping out and giving some input. I do strongly belive ocean blue is the color also, now if I can get the other color I will be set. I don't want to spend $30 dollars for a can of paint that is not the color I want. That second color has to be either pearl gray or platinum. Think I'll give Jamestown a call and see if they can identify the color.

From what I'm seeing, where the deck is in the sun, not shade, it looks like Bikini blue (#3229), & Mist gray (#3705), to me. You better call them :confused: ;)

I thought the same thing as MikDee but figured it was my eyes so didn't post this morning. I agree with calling or a better photo without the sun/shadow effects.
