Default Big Blue Pearl - Paint Code

Does anyone know what the PPG paint code is for Big Blue Pearl? Ordering this stuff from HD is extremely expensive and I would like to paint a car the same color as my SG without spending a small fortune on paint.

Thanks.

It's easiest to find paint code numbers just by doing a GOOGLE search than doing the worthless search function on this site.

Google: harley big blue pearl paint code

Thanks guys, I found the paint code, PPG Big Blue Pearl 930849. It looks like the formula for this paint code isn't released yet. So it is either buy it from PPG or Color Rite. Still very expensive - too bad because I really want to paint my car the same color. More to follow...

$220 a quart. Did you try Sherwin Williams? I used to buy a lot of auto paint there.

These guys carry the color, and a bunch of other colors also.

I painted a aftermarket front fender and a helmet was a perfect match to my 2012 BBP Road Glide, I also called them up and they gave me a better deal then the ebay price and skipped the black base as I already had it primered black.

I am having a truck painted right now now and the shop was able to color match using what I would guess is a reader for the paint. Painter said he matches stuff all of the time using this. I was really suprised the shop mixes all of their paints in house. Could be an option for you.

I'm thinking about buying from KustomPainting.com did your paint job come out kind of dark or was it right on perfect?

Thanks
