Paint Ral codes?

Hi all,
Contemplating the colour of my new project. If i choose a solid Ral colour, will the sprayers be able to mix this colour, or do i need a manufcaturer's code? I don't know anyone who uses the colour i'm after....

Most spray shops will recognise RAL codes, especially those with commercial vehicle contacts.

oh yeah... now we are talking....
Thanks Razman.

Any bodyshop worth paying money to will be able to mix whatever colour you want, car colours are easier, RAL's need a phone call for the formulation.

Choose whatever colour you want, the bodyshops will cope!

You can take a sample in where I get mine and they will match it or near as dammit, I'm probably not fussy enough though
