    RAL colr B744 Panels

    Hello friends,

    I just started to build my own B744 panels.
    I'm wondering if anybody know the RAL color for B744 panels? Or better the correct federal color ? I have no idea the match for "sienna" color?
    Any help please.
    Thanks

    Farny

    As far as I know there is no specific federal color code for the bown Boeing calls for on its panels. It is "officially" Boeing spec 8328. Gables Engineering, a company that makes equipment used in Boeing aircraft, suggests using Testors #2008 Raw Sienna (flat) for touch up repairs. Testors produces paints for models.

    Boeing brown RAL

    Hi Farny,

    I had long time same problems with colors to my 777.
    It seems to me that nobody knows that RAL.
    Then i got real samples of those 2 brown color from Nihad.
    So very big thank's to him.
    I went to carpaint shop and looking what color is close enough.
    I buy RAL 8025 and 1K clearcoat matt.
    That 8025 is that lighter brown and clearcoat takes shiny off from paint.
    Results you can see on my avatar picture.
    That darker brown i will look later.

    Marco
