I was quite bemused when I examined a 1960s Masi Special with original paint recently, and realized it was painted a true candy green. A bright, pretty, medium green, silver undercoat, translucent green overcoat...not what you'd expect from the era, but it was original paint.

So, even cool candy colors seem to be ok...
