prosperysbeer Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 My bro had between 195 and 1999 a Fiesta with a rather special colour : it was dark blue but sometimes it had a purple taint depending on how the light fell on the body . if I remember well it had like gold specs in it Can anyone tell me the name / and colour code for this paint ? I know there was later another colour like it but that was less purple like and didn't have the glod specs in it can anyone help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweeney367 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 The purple tint and gold flakes says custom paint to me.. Could be wrong though. Have a flick through these sample colours; if it's a factory colour it'll be in there somewhere :) 1995-1999 Ford Paint Colour Codes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mehul Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I think the colour you are looking for is 'Melina Blue' - Google it. It is a blue / purple colour - it's a pearlescent paint which means it looks either blue or purple depending on the light. I have a 1999 Fiesta in this colour.

Mehul Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Hi Derek, click here to see an example of the colour on the MK4 Fiesta. The Ford paint code appears to be M6946 according to the Paint Ref database - click here. Hope this helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
