aha,,, blue iris lol reading the link address help...

ok next question.. is this blue.. or dark blue? im using a plasma screen so colours look different at different angles

[rabbitygirl]

I would define it as royal blue AutomaticGal.

Not even a hint of purple on my screen.

[AutomaticGal]

see its one of those colours that if you look at from a different perspective it looks a different shade..... to me theres a hint of purple there....

see the thing is my car is that colour and i need to get some scratch remover polish coz i was stupid... find out why by going into the motoring section and you still see my question near the top.

they have blue scratch remover... then there is dark blue scratch remover..... what to do?

Hi AutomaticGal. I have to agree with rabbity here. It looks like Royal blue to me, as well.

[rabbitygirl]

I know what you're saying about the colour changing. Why not buy both blues and try them on a less conspicuous area to see what's best!

Its ages since I had to tackle scratches on my car - not because I don't get any (which I don't - it's other people) but mine is too old to bother about.

Used to be you got a little colour pen with some makes of car to paint out slight scratches. Or you got the colour code from your book and you could match the colour in a spray tin in a good car accessory shop.

All that may have changed. I didn't know T Cut came in colours lol!

[AutomaticGal]

..... ITS the flat screen then... makes it change colour.....but

[crisgal]

[Ice.Maiden]

Lol @ rabbity!!! x

Well yes, those 2 colours are similar, but I think you're right, AG - best to let the professionals decide, and then there should be no mistakes. x
