Dana White - paint color
« on: July 10, 2019, 12:34:53 PM »
Does anyone know what is added to the color white to make the Sterling Ringmaster wing color, " Dana White"?

I have been looking through the internet and cannot find the color at all, yet Sterling mentions that as the color for the wing.

Just curious. Actually, very curious!

Thanks,

George

GVT...Yeah, it's "Diana Cream" but "Vanna White"!  LL~ Steve

Interesting name and color. Maybe it is the same color as Sterling's Dana White, just renamed. Hard to tell from the old boxes. Thanks

Funny. Google kept showing Vanna White in my search result.

Just a guess but probably a tinge of yellow.

You may be on to the correct color. Gordon Van Tighem showed me Randolph's color patch indicating DIANA Cream not DANA White with yellow in it. I Think this may be it just renamed.  All along I was thinking that it may be a bone or off white color.

Thanks,

George

Maybe it's actually blood red.

In a former life I worked for a heavy truck OEM (Navistar) Fleet customers would order trucks and of course would specify what color they wanted.  We had 81 shades of "white" on file to serve the specifications of our customers.

George,

GVT, I have looked through my notes and cannot find the reference to the color. I read it somewhere and I wish I had made a copy of that. I have something else about the Matt Kania S-1.  It originally had a 5/8" fuselage and wood block wingtips as originally kitted.  I'll keep looking to see if I can remember where I read this. 

My belief is that it may be a bone or off white color with a slight tinge of yellow as Motorman suggested.

I hear you.
My father R.I.P., was a custom cabinet maker. I worked with him. It was crazy how many different shades of white there were. Just as many as the nutty clients he had to deal with.  At any rate, I'm going with off white  when ready to paint. It irks me that I cannot find something that I know I read.
