Lads what's the exact paint code for gunmetal grey on the p1 alloys....
 
Only just seen it,

There you go

Paint Code: 7E80891
Lacquer Code: Matt clear-coat 5K32050 + 5K20011

This has been confrimed by both Prodrive and by OZ in Italy.

This paint was produced by the following methods

AKZO NOBEL COATINGS SpA
Via Benedetto Croce n° 11
CESANO BOSCONE
MILANO. 20090
TEL. 02/486051
FAX 02/48605470

The P-WRC1 wheel was designed developed and marketed by Prodrive but was manufactured for Prodrive by OZ Racing in Italy. The paint materials were supplied to OZ Racing by Akzo Nobel Coatings SpA in Milan and were developed to suit OZ Racing's manufacturing process which includes a high-temperature curing process.

This process cannot be replicated using an air-drying paint which is reason why they cannot give you a RAL number.

RAL is a numbering scheme with a scientific significance.

The RAL number is made of 3 parts:
H(Hue, an angle between 0 and 360)
L(lightness 0-100)
C(Chroma 0-100)
presented as H L C (with no decimals, i.e.: 240 30 40)

OZ used a high-temperature curing process, the RAL number is not replicable using air-drying paint.
 
I knew you'd have the answer :goodjob:
Can it be replicated in a oven Phill or is that classed as air dry also ?
