    JBL Blue Baffle Paint..........

    This is really turning into a pain-in-the-butt situation as I can't seem to find a good
    spot on match for the baffles on my recently restored pair of 4355's..

    I'd appreciate all the help I can get. Thanks!!!!

    Kris90,

    Can you get Sherwin Williams to provide you (and us!) the base and mixing formula they used? That would provide us with another JBL Blue paint version.

    JBL Blue

    Here's a couple of old threads on the topic, for nostalgia sake...

    JBL Blue

    JBL Blue - redux

    As I recall, we went thru a few iterations and someone even found a formula for our European based members...

    Here's a pic of the original blue baffle paint and Sherman-Williams 5007 Brilliant Blue for comparison.
    This match looks close enough to me to proceed with this color.

    I'll provide the formula to anyone who's interested...just send me a pm.

    PM Sent, do you feel the 5007 Brilliant Blue is accurate enough as it is or using the formula is better? Or is the 5007 and the formula one and the same?

    I asked S-W to make a sample of RAL 5007 and this is what they came up with.
    Not having another blue baffle monitor to compare it to (just that 30 yr.old swatch
    under the foilcal), it looks close enough to me.

    This was just one of a few formulas mentioned here so I'm not sure how accurate.
