RAL Color for Zaccaria
« on: February 05, 2016, 11:36:47 AM »
I don't know if It's a just talked topic...

Yesterday I have try to match RAL table color with 2 Zaccaria Control Panel (I have to repaint it) and 1 Quasar from frontal panel (..it's lack of CP)

The color are not the same to my eyes, anyway the closest are:

"DEEP BLUE" (..not so usual, I have see, Vanguard in Dark Blue ver.)--->  RAL 5011

BROWN (usual on Stars and Vanguard)---> RAL 8019

AUBERGINE (usual on Quasar)---> RAL 4007


..the not so closest to RAL it's for me the AUBERGINE (DARK VIOLET)..for the other probably I'll take a RAL Spray...

The paint color made on commission by reference pattern will be more accurate, but for one little surface, used 1 time only, probably the RAL standard spray will be good..

If you have more color to add I'll be happy to know..

I would coat it with varnish though after..

LOL.


RAL is a system developped Im Germany before the war. It's not very exact in its colors.....10% deviation is allowed...
My experience is that matching by the eye is the closest possible thing.
