Ocean Turquoise is a genuine 1960s Fender color

, used across Telecasters, Stratocasters, and Jaguars and sourced from a 1962 Ford Mustang paint shade. It's a bluish metallic with green undertones that become more pronounced over time as the nitrocellulose finish naturally yellows, a look classically paired with tortoise pickups and a rosewood fingerboard. 's lab developed it to match the original factory color, with the clarity, depth, and consistency of a professional finish, and because nitrocellulose yellows and shifts naturally with age, no two vintage examples look quite alike. Apply it over sanded bare wood or fillers, sealers, or stains with the pores filled, spraying 12 to 14 inches from the surface in horizontal then vertical passes and leaving 24 hours between coats. One can covers a well-prepared guitar for an experienced finisher, and StewMac recommends two for a first project.
