Striker Colour Help
I am planing on refurbishing my Striker over the winter, can anyone tell me what the blue colour is please? I've been in touch with Jeremy, but
he is unable to offer a suggestion. I'd like to get son Gel coat, also planning to strip the chassis and repaint, I believe it was powder
coated originally, has anyone got an idea what colour the yellow might be? BS Golden Yellow, perhaps?
Thanks
Angus

Can't help with the blue but my Striker has a Yellow chassis which is a RAL 1023 yellow.

Thanks for your reply, that gives me a good starting point, as over the years some of the more exposed parts and the track control arms have been
painted slightly different yellows (some possibly with Hammerite!)
I guess Raw might have the blue colour in their range, at least I hope so as the bonnet is not going to last for ever.
Thanks again
Angus

You're welcome
Most motor factor paint sellers will have a RAL colour chart. Halford's do a colour matching service I think.
You can look at the RAL charts online but they are notoriously dodgy for matching because the way the computer 'interprets' colours.
Maybe splash out on a RAL colour chart...you can allow for fading then too.
