Whenever we receive color work here we always ask for sample, either a physical sample or a Pantone # or a Fed-Std-595 #.
On running color jobs we establish range samples - light limit, dark limit & target - once the customer agrees, we get a set & they get a set & we hold that range.
Simply sending work out spec'd BLUE Anodize per mil-spec, you will probably always get differenet results.
Let me know if I can be of service or provide quotes on your anodize work - we run blue every day.
