BTW in Norway the Orange is translated to Appelsin. This comes from Apple Chin or the Chinese Apple!
I guess I am off topic now, sorry!

After I posted it occured to me that the German word for tangerine (the fruit, not the color) might be blutorange.Quote:

This is a mutation of a sweet orange that has more anthocyanins (like in blueberries and raspberries) in the flesh. These are powerful anti-oxidants and make the fruit very healthy. It also tastes good.:)
I`m painting mine an organic rot-orange, it will get better as it ages, I hope...USA
I agree, lighting makes a huge difference to this color.
Does driving a Tangerine colored car count as one FDA serving of fruit?
Hey everyone....great comments all!
however, the question still remains, what source do I use to find this paint in the 2009's? is that a hard thing or an easy thing> I just don't know.
anyone done a recent respray of this great color? (that is colOUr for you across the pond chappies!)
thanks!

I recently had my bumper painted, I told the painter the paintcode, he looked in his "books" and it turned out exactly like the rest of the car!
We Canucks also use colour, but in deference to most of the chappies in the US of A, I use color and ignore my spell-checker.Quote:
