APS Tower, Wisconsin, that's them!
I do acknowledge that ordering from them a can of paint won't hardly ever
match what's actually on the car. But, I have to say, their Commodore Blue
can was spot on. And sadly, when I gave the can to the shop to paint my
Alpine, they did not use Tower and mixed the paint themselves. Don't get
me wrong. The car came out great, and I do really like the color.
However, it's not quite as good as Tower's Commodore Blue.
