Paint color for 65 pan

#1

Post by PanRider »

I was looking on John Pierce's page regarding paint colors for a 65 pan. There is a color called Holiday Red. Does anyone know a current paint code for Holiday Red? I also need a diagram or measurements for painting the white on the bottom of the tank. Thanks.

What makes your quest challenging, is that HD never assigned color codes for their colors. So you basically chasing a subjective horse, but you can get DAM close.

I've got some pics for 3-1/2 gallon tanks (courtesy from a member of another forum) . I'll get those up. Hoping that someone can supply the measurements for 5 gal tanks.

And if I may piggyback on a related paint request. Can someone provide the color code for the basic black. Have my 65 down to the frame (finally) and intend to keep it the black w/Birch White paint scheme.
