Swan "White" Paint Colour Recipe

Does anyone have the paint tint recipe for Nautor's "white" hull colour? I have a 1974 S&S 41.

Thanks

John

Dear John,

Last year my hull has been re-sprayed with Iotun NG 2000 Gelcoat, whch, as far as I know is the same they use nowdays at nautor. I got AwlGrip Insigna white for the cockpit (december 2007).

Matteo is right, Jotun 2000 is the colour if gelcoat is in question.

Awlgrip does not have a matching colour, but equal parts of Off White and Snow White is close.

Kind regards

Lars

Hi Professor / Matteo


I'm going to repaint Morgazek, 48/035 next year.
Thanks for the White Gelcoat info.

Any hints about the Blue Stripe/Arrow? (Awlgrip or Gelcoat references?)

Thanks in advance!

Dear Mauro,
I decided for Awl Grip Navy Blue G5001, which is darker than the original one, but I like it

Thank you all for the information. I had all the nicks and scratches repaired last year by a very talented colour matcher. She got it right on, but I forgot to get the recipe. Now I have it!
