[sdiy] blue copper-clad circuit boards?

I have seen pcb material in many different colors, from the 
standard grey and green colors to blue, yellow, brown, and 
red. This is definitely not a coating, I have some blue 
perf board right here in front of me, in my experience it's 
not that rare.

As to where to get some, that I don't know.

Take care,
Doug
