I am getting ready to respray my 246 in it's original color, 106-A-38 Blu Chiaro Metallizzato (confirmed by Ferrari.) The problem is: the original paint areas that I can find are much more blue green than any reference I have for 106-A-38 or the rattle can that I had mixed from Automotivetouchup. The can I have seems a very close match to any references I find in books or on the internet. Could the paint have faded over the years to a more blue / green or do the reference photos not represent the color accurately? I can color match the original, but if it's no longer accurate, should I match the references I can find? Original color shown on left, Automotive touchup on right. Image Unavailable, Please Login
original colour on the left looks almost correct... Automotive touchup on the right looks completely wrong....
