Where can I get light blue caliper paint?

I don't seem to be able to find it anywhere and I'm sure someone must do it.

I want it similar to the light blue on the Hartge logo.



Even if it's just high temp paint I don't mind.

It was acceptable in the 80's

This is a Hammerite Smooth blue - is this close enough?

Hmm, think that is too dark but hard to tell as it's being shadowed by the wheel in the pic. I did have a look at this in Halfrauds the other day but they only had the hammered version for blue and light blue

I would say the best way to describe what I want is baby blue.

Yeah - thought it might be - does look a lot lighter until the wheel goes back on. Might depend on how much metal / space on your alloys.
