RE: Paint Codes
RE: Paint Codes
Like mcgyver says, good luck. We use a mix of specs because different processes (painting V silkscreen V cellotape appliques etc) prefer different systems, ral & Pantone are the two I've seen most.
We tried finding equivalents so we'd know that when we wanted 'company gray' we'd just spec Fed 595B 16492, or Fed 595B 11120 for 'company red' etc. but it never really went anyway.
KENAT,
Have you reminded yourself of FAQ731-376: Eng-Tips.com Forum Policies recently, or taken a look at posting policies: http://eng-tips.com/market.cfm?

I have also seen RGB and CMYK colours.
You can always compare the colour chips and arbitrarily match stuff.
RE: Paint Codes
Our marketing folks can be very picky, we tried the arbitrarily matching stuff and it didnt' work as I recall. I think we may have our own samples/chips for some aesthetically important item.
