For you youngins’ and city dwellers, Ford Blue was what they painted Ford tractors and other farm implements once upon a time. And if my chromosome-damaged memory serves, their engines were blue too, once. Nice color.

What is the Brembo decal made of?

Your memory serves you well lol When I was a kid I spent many a day on one of those tractors Disking brush hogging the fields here in the Houston area I think New Holland bought them out

Made from high temp final then clear coated in. Not a high quality decal though. You can see how jagged the lines are

pretty logical really.fords are slow,thus ford blue is a good color for brake calipers.

I remember the 289 motor in my mom’s 1967 Cougar was Ford Blue. “3 on the floor.” It was a DOG in 3rd. A blue tick hound!

To order G2 custom caliper paint you have to provide make, model and yr of vehicle... don’t think tractors qualify :pound: but thanks anyway

c6 ZR1 came with blue calipers. I'm sure theres a paint code for those somewhere.

Edit: possibly try this. Its the paint for the ZR1, seems to match the calipers on the car fairly well. WA-512Q Jeatstream Blue Metallic Tintcoat. Lemans blue is a deeper blue if you would like to try that.

Hey thanks for that info. Found pics of both colors. So many corvette blue colors. Trying to decide. Also thinking of Hot Wheels blue. All very similar.
