When I had my car sprayed the bodyshop called it "methane blue".
I corrected him promptly but he assured me it was called methane and the colour was an identical match.

I thought it was strange. This was ages ago! But was happy so thought nothing of it.

Then a few weeks ago when i went into renault to get a clutch cable, they put in my cars details and she read out "Clio 16v in Methane Blue"!

I was shocked again? So is it Monaco, or methane?!

Is the paint called Methane blue paint but the colour called Monaco!? Can anyone explain this?
