I used a based of silver metallic and then several light coats of TK3 Nissan Sapphire Blue Dupli-Color Perfect Match until it was the shade I wanted followed by clear coats. I think starting with a silver base helped me keep the blue brighter. I ordered the Dupli-Color Perfect Match from Autobarn but I'm sure it can be found elsewhere. Get two or 3 cans of blue and one can of clear to have some leftover. Taking time for multiple light coats at each stage worked well. I also used Dr. Color Chip in tk3 for light road rash and chips around the exterior.
