I apologize in advance if this is the wrong spot. Just wondering if anybody would know the details for Ford blue as in the colour of the badge. I want to mix it into a house paint to paint a set of shelves I am going to make for my man cave. Thanks

Off the top of my head I would say the colour would be "Ford Corporate Blue"...........the paint code or codes? would be easy enough to google.

You can take any badge or picture of the badge or even something that is the exact colour you want....to the paint shop, they will scan the item and give you paint that colour. Costs nothing to paint match....just the paint ;)

It's not as simple a question as you may think. The badge has undergone extensive changes over the years with the current 100th Anniversary badge (2003) actually using a darker and lighter shade of the Ford Blue than previously used.
The Pantone colour for Ford Blue is PMS 294C. Cheers Russ
