Hello
does someone of us know the pantone or RAL reference of the blue paint on the IMSAI 8080
cover?
I want to repaint mine but i don't find the exact reference of this blue.
Many thanks in advance

IIRC it's spraypainted sheet metal. I suspect your best bet would be to
go to a car bodywork place. They'll be able to match and spray the
paint, and do a far better job. Won't be cheap though.

If you get a color booklet, look for one called "Pantone Formula
Guide Solid Coated". I had a lot of trouble before finding out it
was an ink-jet color book. I don't understand why the color codes
can't cross... Getting the colors to match on the Kenbak was one of
the hardest parts of the project! : )
