Press Colors

Post by 7000grain »

Hey gang, after a bunch of research I ended up buying a Color Muse 2. It detects the exact color and provides the paint codes and sheen.

Let me know if there are any others you want me to scan. With the color code and sheen I can order the exact MEC red and Black for example from a powder coat company for the press restorations.

RCBS. Two different colors. One was scanned from a progressive and the other a Rock Chucker Supreme. Both have the hammer in the sheen.

This is the device I used. It’s very accurate.
