Name that color

4-RUNNIN' FREAK · 02-10-2005, 07:18 PM

I have found a color I will get my truck painted when the original paint gets worse. It is on www.ARBUSA.com.
It is right after a Jeep on what looks to me like a Land/Range Rover. It has a hint of green tint to it.
What would you call this color? (Besides ugly)
(Also would like a blue similar to the green)

I'd call it white.
Just looks like funky camerawork making it greenish.

terryjmatthew · 02-10-2005, 07:23 PM

It appears to be a Tri-coat. Maybe green pearl over white basecoat.
The new Caddys have something similar.

jimbo74 · 02-10-2005, 07:23 PM

it looks like a seafoam kinda color.....

4-RUNNIN' FREAK · 02-10-2005, 07:23 PM

I like it though. Maybe I'll mess with the computers color palatte in a bit to see if I can come close. It helps pick out paint colors for my house so it can work for my baby.

4-RUNNIN' FREAK · 02-10-2005, 07:26 PM

Anyone else like it? It the kind of color that looks like it would almost glow on a dreary day and make someone look a few times.

jimbo74 · 02-10-2005, 07:27 PM

i htink its a very ugly color... looks like someone barfed......

NathanBERG · 02-10-2005, 07:27 PM

I would call it UGLY

LOL J/K No idea!

4-RUNNIN' FREAK · 02-10-2005, 07:28 PM

Maybe i'll drink like a fish tonight and go vomit on it and see what it looks like in the morn when it dries.

NathanBERG · 02-10-2005, 07:30 PM

Lmao!!

terryjmatthew · 02-10-2005, 07:30 PM

BTW, there is another pic of that Rover on the "winches" page.

4-RUNNIN' FREAK · 02-10-2005, 07:31 PM

Computer geeks, :geek: Is there anyway I can capture the pic in JPEG format? I am trying, but it won't work.

jimbo74 · 02-10-2005, 07:36 PM

right click on the pic when it gets to that pic..... then put save as befroe it changes... you can save it on your computer... if you cant do it, send me your email address and i will email you the jpg

4-RUNNIN' FREAK · 02-10-2005, 07:39 PM

I tried that and I tried to snip it from the winch page. I only have the bmp and art and I cannot reformat. I will PM you in a second with e-mail addy. Thanks much.

4-RUNNIN' FREAK · 02-10-2005, 07:45 PM

Drinking this to induce vomiting

In off topic "BUMP FOR BEER"

jimbo74 · 02-10-2005, 07:54 PM

weer you able to get the picture?

4-RUNNIN' FREAK · 02-10-2005, 07:57 PM

No. No mail yet. May be slow tonight.

4-RUNNIN' FREAK · 02-10-2005, 08:19 PM

The mail just arrived. Thanks Jim.
Now, who makes a high quality paint. All I know is House Of Kolor is supposed to be good. I like the "Rootbeer" color that they painted the PT Cruiser on, I think, Pimp My Ride.
This is all for future references now.

jimbo74 · 02-10-2005, 08:29 PM

any paint place can mix you a special color..... PPG is a top notch automotive color brand

Fahrenheit 451 · 02-10-2005, 08:34 PM

URP...if Mary Kay was Irish enough, that is what all their cars would look like

My vote for the name game: int Ice Mint
My favorite real name for a color, the Mopar guys will know this one and plenty more no doubt: Statutory Grape

4-RUNNIN' FREAK · 02-10-2005, 09:11 PM

Ice Mint...Mint Ice. I like it.
At least I know one oher person that likes it, the person who owns that truck. Unless it's "photoshopped"

http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/3946275/c/29715.html

Looking for more pics.

What about epoxy type? Like what is on washers and stoves and stuff. I think that electrostatically painted though.
Most of the trucks at my job have this and the paint is hard to damage.
Not like we try to damage it, but they get washed with soapy water (dirty most times) with mohair type brooms. I tell em to use dust mops, but they don't listen.

4-RUNNIN' FREAK · 02-11-2005, 12:13 AM

Post whoring. Sorry Jim. (From post "I will race and beat you all in 2007" for future readers, if any)
I just remembered there was a program I used a few time on my old computer that would tell you the hue, saturation and the red, green and blue content when you opened it and pointed the mouse over the picture.
Does anyone have something like this that can send me the values?

Nice creative name.

wiseguymmiv · 02-11-2005, 03:13 PM

The U.S. Forestry Service uses (or used to use) a color very much like the green in the ARB picture. Maybe you can find out what paint they use.
