Thanks, that does help actually. I am surprised now that it's not a brighter blue. The second secret color, if there is one, has to be a red. Why would the designers chose such a dark greenish blue or ocean blue and leave Chili Red the same?

I think a true black or midnight black looks good, but it's hard to avoid always wanting to clean it off.

Come to think of it, we had a 1968 Oldmobile 98 delta that was an ocean blue that sounds a lot like what this horizon blue looks like (just a little lighter). Never thought I would be thinking of that color again for a future vehicle... Here's one that looks similar.
