I don't know where I got this information and whether it is even correct. Red painted nuts obviously for the split rims, white painted nuts for the hubs, but to differentiate between the left and right hand threads, one of those sets was painted blue.

Blue nuts(apart from the usual nudges and winks)...can you try to remember the reference for this particular application?

I've not seen, or heard, of blue being used on Canadian CMPs.

Perhaps a Holden, etc thing?
