baikal vs arctisblau

[dave v. in nc]

I always thought that Baikal was the color of my 72, but found a touch-up bottle in a box of old stuff that is Arctisblau (I think that's right), that looks a lot like the car, but bottle is too dried out to tell...was thinking A'blau was a later, maybe 80's color? Bought the car with little history, no sticker, definitely a repaint, but still thought it was Baikal...and looks like the previous Baikal post photos...Any folks with experience with both, with thoughts/opinions?

early

cs color. Also one year 85 or 86, 635 special order. ( handful of cars if that many, legend says 1) Shows up on the paint color charts.

Arkisblau, 059 paint code IIRC Close to Baikal, ever slightly greyer to my eye when side by side.

It's been discussed before here.
