I've tried this using RAL - The closest was a little bit yellow

So I went for an off white RAL next which worked for me but still wasn't quite right.

I think perhaps a spray job is the answer - or you'd need to have a powder made up specially to get it just right

Good Luck  :daumenhoch:

if it's pantone than it's wont be a powder colour as pantone are screen print colours,

i'm sure it's just a standard ral or bs colour and there will be something on the charts

that's very close :daumenhoch:

Dan they're both Ral

The cream was Oyster White - It might be called a little different as that was from a German RAL book but the number should be the same

And the Tan was also a RAL colour I just can't remember which without looking at the books - But as I said I think it is a tad too yellow  :daumenhoch:

RAL 1014 (ivory) looks pretty close though it's always hard to tell on a PC screen  :-\
