heres  an easy way to  dupe your paint-  take a panel with you to your local 
Sherwin-Williams store.  They candupe  your paint and sell you some in spray 
cans.  73  Russ.

I love the Cosmic Blue color scheme, have since I bought my first NC-155 in 1974, but I think the two tone version on the NC-270 is vastly inferior.
