Does anyone know the color code for the blue bow tie found in the grill/hood of the 49-56 chevy-pick up trucks?

Chev\'s of the 40\'s sells the paint for that application. It is One Shot Lettering Enamel. I did my badges and hub caps with it and have had nothing but compliments on the color.

Would this be the same for a 50 styleline dlx car?
Also, what color is area around the bowtie on the hubcaps supposed to be? I think it's supposed to be gold but can't tell from mine as it's too faded. If so, What's a good brand or type to use?
thanks in advance, Bill
