International Marine Paint - Sea Colour Chart Uploaded March 20, 2007
Posted by admin in : Colour Chart, Marine Paints , trackbackAs requested by quite a few, I’ve scanned and uploaded the International Marine Paint Sea Colour Chart. It’s a rather big chart, so I’ve split it into 2. The bottom part of the 2nd chart has a reference table to show the grid reference and the corresponding colour code for the paint. As always, remember that the colour you see depends on the settings of your monitor and can be quite different from the actual colour of the paint. With that said, it is still an indication of the colour, short of coming down to my outlet to look at the ‘real’ thing. Click on the image to pop up a larger image.
If you can’t focus on small words and numbers, the images below will let you zoom in. They are the same as the above 2, just that it allows you to zoom in.

how can i know on which colouring system (RAL, english standards etc) each company is based??? im interested in marine paints from international, jotun and sigma
George,
The colour system each company uses is usually dictated by demand. Most companies, including the 3 you’ve listed, have their own proprietary numbering system. On top of that, probably due to demand, colours from the different numbering systems are added. International uses a lot of BS colours while jotun uses quite a bit of RAL colours. International’s own standard colours are based loosely on the British Standard.
I have been strugging with a comparison of internationa marine paints and that of hempel. please give a on their compartibility and whether thy can be interchanged. The original paint on the boat is international. I want to know if I can do a touch up with Hempel.
