how can i get the brightest blue paint from home depot?

not sure if this would be the right place to ask this question, but figured it was a good start.

i am in the middle of 2 acrylic paintings, and i need a very electric very saturated blue. the blues i had were not cutting it so i went to home depot. all the swatches they had there were somewhat desaturated, i bought a couple different shades anyway. along with some very bright greens and yellows, figuring i could mix some brightness in if i had to.

i am not sure if the home depot paint machine thing works in cmyk, or what the pantone equivalent would be, but the blue i want would be 100% cyan and nothing else.

i think i may call the paint guys at home depot to see if they can give me that. anyone what the pantone would be?

just spoke to a couple different people at home depot paint center, and their machines do not use cyan, they use phthalo blue, green, magenta, etc. looks like its mixing time.
