Default Blue Chromate?

I plated my first parts with the copy-cat kit this weekend. The plate went on nice and smooth, however I had an issue with the blue chromate. I added 1 quart distilled water to the solution. I dipped the part in solution and it came out shiny, but had no blue hue to it? I thought it was supposed to dye the part blue? It definately changed the appearance of the part by changing it from a dull gray to a shiny near silver. Anyone who has used this please chime in and let me know what you got. Thanks.
