Smile Differences between Carbon Black, Orient Blue, Nachtblau/Midnight Blue, Monaco Blue.

Hey guys, give me to opinion!

Hope you all like!

Yesterday I thought especially on this topic think has touched it.
I hope it is of interest to you.
I'm already talking about some colors out and others continue.
The issue is to know the differences between these paintings.
Carbon black is really black BMW just because it assigns, may well have been named as one blue and the brand not so named.
Think it was a matter of marketing to sell more and stay in the market tell them why.
Orient Blue , Nachtblau/Midnight Blue, Monaco Blue, schemes are very close in their chroma paint Carbon Black with touches of purple under certain lighting conditions with direct sunlight all agree some other more intensively and with less impact.
Interestingly Orient Blue, Monaco Blue, Midnight Blue and disappeared from the market because they had no name blue and no black.
As well could have been Orient Black, Monaco Black, Midnight Black these last also called sales would follow.
Should be noted very carefully to realize this. Below check images.
