Title: Zaccaria Paint Colour Codes
Post by: Kewydee on October 31, 2014, 08:31:10 PM
Hi Guys

Does anyone know the paint colour codes for Zaccaria Cabinets?

Not the artwork but the cabinet paint, the colour under the artwork.

As far as I know there was a Black - Maroon/Purple - Light Blue - Brown (Dulux Cocoa Blush 1 - thanks Rory) - and a Dark Blue??

Edit - and a deep red

If you can help please post the info

i only have pics from the web to go by

Thanks, really need the help of the Zac Experts on DLF  :)

Is Dulux "Royal Berry" paint a good match for the Maroon/Purple ?

Is Dulux "Azure Fusion 6" a good match for the light blue ?

Edit - Is Dulux "Salsa Red" a good match for the deep red?

Rory has chosen Dulux "Cocoa Blush 1" as the Brown he is using to paint his cabinet, that seems a good match

If my guess is wrong please let me know, I want to get this as accurate as I can

Once Ully and i tried to get a reading on his paintcode scanner, but the finish was so glossy that it could not get a good reading  :-\

I am now doing the sideart of Crazy kong (at least i started, and need to pick it up again) and i think i will go for complete lamination with vinyl, so print the brown and all colors and cover the complete side.

so for the colorcodes of paint, again i cannot be of help ..

sorry..

Thanks for the info

You must have a good eye for colour, are my guesses close?

Your opinion is greatly appreciated

Could the vinyl be scanned to get a colour code which could then be used for paint?

i dont have a good eye for color, so i dont know if your guess is right.

I took the color of the scan i made from the cabinet and will adjust that with some test prints to get the color close.
I dont have an actual print yet with zaccaria colors.

I don't know if my guess is right either :D

I shall stumble along until I find a match, or something very close

Calling all zac fans, tell me what colour you think your cabinet is

Limited on my personal (generic) cab: (left to right)

- Dark blu Stars... (I call it simply: blue)
- Brown Stars (..simply Brown)
- Brown Vangurd
- Blue Vanguard ( Purple/ "Aubergine"?..like Quasar?)

For same type of cabinete it's simple to not mix up the color...ex: Mony money: stars Light blue (for me azure), Stars blue..ecc
Some other are iridescence color: Stars brown looks in many photos BLACK...

So: for real my eyes never ever seen the black color Zaccaria cab's..I'd like to know this because I love to have one of it!

Lovely picture, 4 Zacs! wow, not even seen one up close for many, many years

outside 2 look dark blue to me

inside 2 look black

The Mr Do is a conversion from which original game?

2nd from left (with metal kick plate) is what I would like to make a replica of

They all look lovely, would be very happy to own one

Maybe one day if I am very lucky, I'll have my own Zac :)
