Damn. You guys are talking about "gunmetal" and my powdercoater wants me to provide a RAL color for that........

It is difficult to get a real sense of what the RAL colors are but I would think anything close to a titanium sort of color would be good. These might be close but you would have to see actual samples of the paint.

RAL 7024

Graphite grey
Gris graphite
Gris grafita
Grigio grafite
Grafietgrijs


RAL 7036
127-118-121 #7F7679 Platingrau
Platinum grey
Gris platine
Gris platino
Grigio platino
Platinagrijs

RAL 7026
047-053-059 #2F353B Granitgrau
Granite grey
Gris granit
Gris granito
Grigio granito
Granietgrijs
