Default Volk Mag Blue colour code?

Hey im looking to paint my wheels Volk mag blue or "winning blue" as its called in the Rays catalogue.. I've looked through a few paint chips to try and get a similar colour but with no luck as of yet. Does anyone know if there is a paintcode available for this? I highly doubt Rays will hand it out either..

Hex code is for imaging software, which isn't the same digital format as paint codes. In short, no they won't know what to do with the hex code.

While that is true, if you have a color calibrated printer (trivial to do with most these days), you can print out the exact shade that the hex format represents, and take in the printed sheet for color comparison / matching.
