I agree with Fred, Teal.. actually a correct teal color shows a bit darker than the steel picture you posted , but its close enough ... bob

Pretty sure they call that Cayman Green. It looks teal to me.
But that's the name, pretty sure.

They had two very similar colors listed on their website, "Turquoise" under Basic Colors looks closest to me, but there is also "Teal Green" under Shades/Tints, which is a slightly lighter shade, more green.

Looks like a PMS 310 to me. "Ocean Park" or "Carribean", maybe?

I think the guys who said turquoise nailed it by looking at the catalog color chip. Now the hard part.....me finding a Legrande II in turquoise! If anybody knows where one is sitting for sale please let me know.

I wonder if whoever came up with that color was wanting to go back to their younger days.
When I was in high school, Graduated 1961. I had a 55 Chevy, It was 2 toned and General Motors called the color Teal and White, Was very close to the color of guitar.
