paint code

Post by wimor »

As one knows the tie bars and torsion bar are painted silver. But there is a big variety in silver. Who knows the code (RAL) for the right silver paint?

Are they 'silver' or a more likely period colour would be 'aluminium'?
Having said that mine are black!

The right color is silver that is what I read in Original Morris Minor.

Yep, they were silver, but I don't know what the correct colour is. I used hamerite smooth in silver.
