Yeah,

Blue is probably a best "one color" tungsten solution that's reasonably priced.

But, Red may actually be a tad better on steels, while Blue may be a tad better than Red on aluminum.

Otherwise, I most often use a "Cream" color TriMix for both. They cost more, as they're German produced. But they're undoubtedly the best, and I don't weld a whole bunch, so they're easily affordable.

So, Cream, Blue, or Red are all a good one-color solution, and in that order.

So, preferred tungsten for steel, stainless steel, and aluminum? I don't care if there's three different ones I need to get just want to do it right.
Thank you
