Wadkin RAL colour

[Maverick.uk]

For those that may be interested I spoke with Wadkin yesterday about my table saw, very helpful people. They are trying to identify the saw for me. I told them i wanted to repaint in the original colours and asked if they had the RAL coding for it, to which they said yep hold on a minute.....

For those that may want it, its RAL 5021 (water blue)

Cheers

My Wadkin pillar drill is painted in that colour with the cast wadkin logo painted red.

I think the paintwork is original and the machine probably made in the 1940's.

There were several colours - somewhere, sometime, Scrit gave a run-down on dates etc.

But there's the nice grey, and the perfectly acceptable green.

And then there was the RAL 5021 colour

My pillar drill is not that bright so i presume it isnt water blue. I thought that colour was on the more modern machines. Mavericks saw looks pretty old so i would assume it would originally be the grey colour.
