It has the confident, slightly royal tone that Italian designers liked to pair with chrome bumpers and pale interiors, and it looks just as good on a small city car as on a sporting coupé. Modelers reach for it when building period Italian road cars or when they want a patriotic blue for an Italian-themed build without resorting to a metallic.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eGetting the tone right\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eBlues, greens and purples change character with the primer underneath and the number of coats.
