How correct are the Eastwood engine paint colors?

I've used the Eastwood and it may be I didn't prep enough, but after 3  to 4 years, it started to peal off in sections on 2 engines. But that was 10 years ago. The color was very close to the Caravelle Blue for 68, which I liked, more green in it.
The Poly Blue for 69 to 71 or 72 (depends on who you ask, when the change was made) is closer to the paint I posted a picture of earlier in the thread. 

This is all of course in minds eye. It's like being a professional paint color naming person - I want that job!
