Open Array housing color

[Hammerhead]

I am getting my array prepped to paint and would like to go with original color. Can anyone tell me where the color chart is for the following,

N 9.5

That is the color specified in the manual.
And no, I am not painting the rotating housing, just the body.

Thanks.

Have been asking myself the same question. The N9.5 notation is Mansell color code where N stands for neutral, meaning all RGB components are the same value. In an RGB scale of 0-255 the N9.5 stands for 243/243/243. This is a bit darker than pure white, but for the eye it appears cooler than pure white. Closest RAL white might be 9003 Signal white. (244/244/244).

If you look at the photo section at gimballed NXT, you can see my antenna in N9.5 versus the bracket and radar mast in RAL 9010 pure white (255/255/255). Since my boat´s gelcoat and the Radar Mast where all 9010, I had the bracket powder coated in 9010 after reworking it to fit the new antenna. In retrospect I could have chosen 9003 for the bracket, then it would look much like the antenna. Not sure what would be better.
