That is a cream color with texture. The placards and markings are silkscreened on top. Ed at Lancair provides the artwork for the silkscreen maker who then applies it to their painted panels. I decided to match the overhead metal insert pieces to the panel color. There are reading lights and Wemac gasper air valves installed there. After preping the metal by buzzing it with fine sandpaper on a random sander I etched and alodyned the pieces. I sent them to: Commercial Powder Coating (CPC) (541) 330-1141 2185 NE 2nd ST #C Bend, OR 97701 for paint. They do the work for Lancair Avionics thru Comm West Inc. who does the silkscreen. I still don't know what to do about lettering. I have added the AOA to our panel and must placard the two push buttons. Tom at Comm West Inc will do it for me but I must provide the art and disassemble the panel piece for him. He is priced reasonably. CPC has a $50 minimum so the overhead pieces cost that plus $7 for freight. I hope this helps, Walter Dodson IV-P 75% and 50% to go. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://members.olsusa.com/mkaye/maillist.html LML Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair Please remember that purchases from the Builders' Bookstore assist with the management of the LML.
