Vintage DuPont Lake Placid Blue Body Alder (other Colors on Request.....

Originally a Cadillac DuPont paint, Lake Placid Blue joined Candy Apple Red as two of the most popular and successful Fender custom colours of the late 1950s and 1960s. As with Candy Apple Red, the colour soon evolved beyond its automotive paint roots with Leo's experimentation and was eventually applied in the same three-step nitrocellulose finishing process:

* metallic base coat (silver was used with some known examples of gold being used after 1965);
* translucent blue clear coats;
* clear coat.
