June 28, 20197 yr I have researched the site before i get told off. I noted forum posts from 2008 from WOODY, ( TRIED TO SEND YOU A MESSAGE BUT IT WOULDN'T ACCEPT IT !! ) The original colour of yellow is RAL 1018, Zinc yellow, although some people say its to pale. I bought a can of 1018, primed it in grey and sprayed it, they were right a far paler shade than the one its wearing now. On speaking to other people i've been told that it needs a white primer. WOODY in 2008 you recommended, RAL 1021 , can you remember was it a white or grey primer. you used. Has anyone sprayed one up recently with a different opinion or RAL code. Thanks.
June 29, 20197 yr No idea what the message problem was. Can't help with what difference white or grey primer makes sorry, mine was powder coated and a body shop did the tank for me. It normally says on the can which primer to use ? I'd always use 1021 for yellow, it's a nice deep, rich shade. Can't get a picture of my old Gripper on here but this Majesty was 1021
June 29, 20197 yr Author That’s the deeper rich yellow I’m after, it’s the colour of the bike now, 1018 is far too pale. Thanks Woody. ??
