Paint Codes


Happy New Year everyone!

I have had some difficulty in providing my local paint supplier with any recognisable paint codes for the various colours on our buses; he was unable to cross reference on his computer the FLT codes listed on the ROOF website as apparently they are no longer used. Searching the forums gave me no useable codes either.

The only way I was able to get any current codes was via a very helpful person at HMG in Manchester, so I thought I would post them here for future reference; if anyone has any further codes to add to this small list we may be able to compile a full list of useable up to date codes...

RAL 3004 - Burgundy (Inside platform)

W1074 - Indian Red (Wheels)

HMG 0896 TAS - Chiswick Cream

B/STD 10E50 - Forsythia (Sung Yellow)
