Title: RAL paint
Post by: PX-7 on June 06, 2010, 01:34:13 PM
Does anyone know what specifically what color code Emu used to paint the bodies of the EII?
I think do it right, one would have to have it sand blasted and then have it powder coated.  I've had
metal furniture, and bike frames powder coated and it's been a no brainer.  Just gotta make sure you have them use a clear coat also.   I've learned that the hard way.

I don't know if they used the RAL paint system or the Pantone chart?

And what color code did they use?

I guess it's anyone's guess at this point.  Who would know?

Why don't you ask a printer to rent (or lend you with a garantee) a Pantone booklet ?

Oops, forgot the top is plastic.  Sand blasting would not work for plastic.
It would shred it apart.   :-\   Shredded Wheat!!

I'm yet to see a repainted EII besides the black one we saw by another member.
I found the .eps type font on the net for rear white Emulator decal.   The paint code and paint type will have
to work for the plastic top cover and for the metal chassis.  I'm wondering if I should have both
pieces shot with clear?  It could look amazing like a new unit, or like Frakenstien's monster.
I have some other cool idea's up my sleeve and I am gonna keep them on the low till it's done.

Stoked.

That's for the EII. Question was E1.
I can't help though.
