Caledonian Blue
I am about to get my 90 resprayed in Caledonian blue but there seems to be some conflicting information around on whether it is a solid colour, metallic or micatallic.

Even the LR parts catalog mentions both whilst referring to the same paint code.

Does anyone know for sure?

Cheers,

Can you see any metallic flecks in the paint on yours?
