Thanks for any info,

I just wish I could find a Big Blue for sale somewhere around me, let alone knowing the right paint color. Regardless, I am interested in this answer as well.

Sail Blue

I have used the Gloss Sail Blue oil based Rustoleum available at Walmart on a few of them. Its a pretty close match to what they had. I use a foam cabinet roller with 50 percent overlap when rolling. Smooth it all out and make it even when each side and front is completely covered and it takes like 24 hours to dry completely.
