If Fountain Blue is the same as Crystal Blue , I have had some Fountain Blue made up, and have the current paint formula. The paint codes have changed since the balm paint codes.

I will post shortly, when I can find them.

Sorry for the delay, I have found the code for Fountain Blue, This is the same that is on Graham Pryce's FC. I hope someone can make sense of them it is gobbledygook to me ???

A020-260.9
A129-700.1
A209-824.7
A515-867.1
A780-875.9
A135-1175.9
A209-1225.9
A260-1265.9
A020-1335.9

I asked for a litre, it was supplied in a 2 litre tin, that feels half empty. I haven't opened the tin yet.
I hope that helps you out
