I'm not sure if this will be useful but, here are a couple of links to color matches for Aqua Blues:

These appear to be Sears house paint colors but, they seem very close to the colors used on their 60's and 70's trailers.

Interesting.   The values are RGB: 100 201 190 . That is light cyan, slightly into the green region.

I was looking at some paints and I'm pondering if the military color FS 34350 Forest Service Green would be a good match for the Sears green.
