Hello list,
does anybody of you know colour codes or the mixture to obtain the grey paint
that DEC used for their early H960 cabinet side panels as well as for their
later cabinet from the 80s and 90s like the H9A10 or H9A15?
Some of the colours are listed in DEC-STD-092
(http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/dec/standards/EL-00092-00-0_F_Finish_and_Color_Standard_Dec82.pdf)
though it's not immediately obvious which one is the grey for the
cabinet side panels. Even then I think it's tricky to map to something
you can actually buy. MUN is short for Munsell. Not sure about CHM.
There's a number of resources on the net for looking up Munsell color
numbers, and that might get you to what the color actually looks like. A
dedicated paint store may even be able to mix up paint based on the
original Munsell color code.
