Red RAL ref??

[bitsilly]

I have been told my car is the Ultima gel coat red.
Some of the screen has been sprayed,apparently the same colour and there is a large scratch that needs filling in.
Can anyone tell me what the colour of the gel coat is? The plan is to match it.
Ideally the ral number or the name of the colour??
Many thanks
Ed

Guess a call to the Factory should give you the answer.

Factory told me some time back it is Ford Radiant Red, but as red is the worst color for color fade I would recommend you have it custom color matched. Any competent paint supplier should be able to do it easily.

You can also get a small pot of 2 part colored gel coat from the factory, it doesn't keep well so get it it when you need it.

If the screen has been partially sprayed , it won't have been with gel coat. the screen has been nowhere near the body when the gel coat is applied.
It suggests the car may have been sprayed later on.
Might be worth a call to the previous owner.

Was it Mark P's car, I remember early on in the cars life it had a hole in the side, perhaps the whole car was sprayed when that was repaired.

Only some of the windscreen has been sprayed to match the gelcoat colour.

PS The rest of the car is still in gel coat.

ciao,
I have completely repainted my gtr and practically the same color is red ferrari or delta integrale.

I seem to also have a code relating to gelcot, but not color, i think
