Folks

I have a mid-80s Bianchi road bike that I wanted to re-paint Celeste green. I started with ordering a chip of the Pantone 332 which has been discussed here before. I took the chip down to my local automotive paint shop along with the front fork and left it for a few days to see what they could come up with.

As you all know, Celeste has changed hues many times over the years.

We settled on a Dupont CAS386.

It was not a direct match with my 80s Bianchi (I left a small patch of the original color on the fork stem). This color had a bit more blue in it but it was a perfect match for the fizik bar tape. I actually prefer this color than the original.

No use in posting the painted bike as colors will change according to lighting.

So for those looking for another celeste option, try Dupont CAS386.

Cheers
