Paint Colours.


Carbon Brush

Recommended Posts

A bit of a long shot.

Does anyone know of a list of paint colour codes (RALxxxx) that are or have been used on astronomy kit?
Or maybe their automotive equivalent names?
Or maybe colours used on particular scopes?

For my own use it is to tidy up small paint chips and scratches. Though others might want to spray an OTA or mount.

This has been prompted by me looking for some white paint for a Vixen OTA. Though I do have other scopes with paint chips.
Having seen paint jobs by others that would struggle to pass colour match inspection on a dark site, I would like to be able to buy a small brush touch up quantity getting it right first time. Rather than making multiple visits to the car spares shop or ordering loads of model paint online.

If individuals know good colour matches, it might be useful to collate them as a resource on the SGL site.

Any thoughts?

Thanks, David.
