Arrest me Red! Info..

[gump]

Hi, looking for some help-

Does anyone know the RAL code, or what colour match this is?

Two reasons really, one for frame touch up paint, and two, thinking of painting the Judys to match

Also, if painting sus forks, should it just be the lowers with crown polished, or crown painted too? Bit of style advice needed here!!

Cheers..

rody who posts up here seems to have the inside track on Fat City RAL numbers...

When painting Judys to patch I'd do the lowers only. Not sure how good a match RS red might be to the Fat City colour...

FAT colours have changed slightly over the years. depending on what paint was available at the time. I've seen around 3 different shades of grellow & at least 2 shades of lavender. In other words, gettin the RAL is no guarentee it'll match!

I think the red JUDY's on my Alu-O are colour matched to that red colour you want. It's brighter than JUDY red.
(what colour RAL is JUDY red anyway ?)
