Title: M&R Pantone Blue?
Post by: Admiral on May 30, 2018, 12:40:15 PM

I could use the Pantone book (and get really close) but figured someone here already knows the Pantone.  What Pantone does M&R use for their blue paint on equipment?

Thanks

Okay, I'll contact them.  Pantone 2153C looks like the closest match to me from the book but I rather go to the source of course.

Part # 7010000A

But I was looking for a Pantone for getting paint for walls mixed, not to touch up the press - anyway, they didn't have it, some artist would but I have no way to know how to reach that.

Going to use the Pantone book and double check and go with that.

I got one of these things to help match color. It seems to work pretty well; while it doesn't give you a pantone it will give you RGB or in your case, the closest stock paint color available from a bunch of manufacturers.
