RE: Painting irridium vehicles

Back in the days when I worked for an office supply store, I had the
opprotunity to see some irridium (it was used on the end of a fountain
pen
to prevent wear). 

As I recall it was a dull silver color similar to platinum.

Subject: Painting irridium vehicles

I'm going to paint a set  of vehicles Hammer's Slammers style.
One problem, I have never seen a piece of irridium.  The online
sites say "bluish white".

Anyone have any suggestions?  I'm thinking steel with a blue
ink glaze or maybe silver with blue mixed in, but I'm really
not sure.

TIA
