  • Can anyone help with RAL colours ?

    Posted by Tony Voituret on April 21, 2009 at 12:57 pm

    I am producing some Ford Banners and the only colour refs I have are

    Blue 270 30 305

    Silver / Grey 9006

    I need to convert to pantone if anyone can help.

    Thanks

    cant help with the pantone ref, but I don’t recognize the blue numbers as RAL format.

    Silver/grey Vinyl is available from Intercoat code 9794 which is equivalent of RAL 9006

    That blue code looks like a BS number!

    hmmm, after a bit of digging it might be a RAL Design colour number. Its not BS4800 or BS381C.

    Hi
    The silver is definately Ral.
    The blue is a Munsell colour. Its an american colour code. We occasionally have to paint stuff for the Americans and we get an obscure number like that. I don’t know how you can convert it to a pantone though. Sorry.

    I have just PM’d you the screen shots of the RAL software as we not allowed to post links to other image sites. 👿 The first colour grey colour be a metalic colour and the second blue could be a spelling error from the RAL Design collection.

    The only silver pantone I know is 877 C. It is similar or also the same as mentioned RAL
