hi folks,
we are seeking a helping hand to define the color scheme of this part:
http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/3754p90.dat
there has already been a discussion with orion and steve through e-mail, but
it led to no end. the most critical point is the white-bluish color 505:
up to now we have two samples of this part:
and we are seeking some more (as well as your opinion) to find out if this
505
should be 505, as orion has put it “distinctly white with no blue” or
if I should use a different white with a shade of blue?
thx, w.

I think you have made an assumption about the particular parts you are using as
a model. The printing process LEGO uses/used for this is faulty, and the white
strips you are referring to on the rocket and helmet appear to me to be simply
an overlap of the white and grey areas.
I dug out my copy of this part, and found that instead of a white stripe, I have
a blue one. Where yours overlaps, mine was printed so that instead of an
overlap there was a gap between the white and grey areas. To wit:
