Andy - the blue one is perfect for Union uniforms. You can turn them round (or walk round the table) until you can see the otherwise magic and unreachable shade you're after.

There's already a 'copyright' legal battle over the name of these

Gloss black undercoat is the usual approach for airbrushing metallics too
