Re: Paint values

Guys, we emailed all the Brazilian teams with the appropriate mixes using paints we can find in here, and also vynil decals that we used for green and yellow.
Anyway, here it goes again:
Quote:
Red:

8872 - Extravinil Super
Base: 8872-Extravinil Super

4A1A FIRE ENGINE RED
AXX - 9
R - 2Y20
V - 47

Blue:

8872 - Extravinil Super
Base: 8872-Extravinil Super

69A1A LEGENDARY BLUE

E - 2Y33
KX - 18
V - 33

(You can take those codes to any Renner Paint Shop and they'll make 'em to you in a couple of hours.)

For yellow and green, best we found was the Oracal 651 line, yellow is code 22 (light yellow) and green is 68 (grass green). You can buy them in Porto Alegre at the Shampions store, it's on Brasil Avenue.
Anyway, I wouldn't be too concerned with the actual values, because, as I understand, FIRST will give teams the exposure values at each Regional. Just have your camera follow something similar, develop your program, then use the values FIRST gives you at the competition.
