Frost wouldn't sell the same paint under two names. Mowog as an organisation is older than BMC so they are probably different.

As far as i was aware, it was always BMC colours that were used.... Didn't even know there was a MOWOG green.

Anyway, with regards to BMC green, there are 3 different shades of that as well. The most comon one is the darker shade, but there are lighter ones too. I bought the lighter shade of BMC green for our latest project, as it matches the colour of the car quite well
