Never heard of candy "apple" blue. I think the name you're looking for is just candy blue. And in all honesty, I think all powdercoaters call the color transparent blue. I know the guy that does my powdercoating uses a base coat called bonded chrome and then uses a second coat of transparent blue, and that's what gives it the candy color.

It's a legitimate "color". Back in the 80's, the bicycle company Hutch offered Candy Apple Blue as one of their frame colors.
