I to would love to know the RAL colour for the window frames. Mine need rubbing back in a few places and re painting.

The Starboard White color has a bit of beige to it. I repainted the full topside, cockpit and salon with Awlcraft. The closest AwlGrip color I could find was Morrisville Double. It is only slightly lighter than factory color. Have no idea where the name came from.

Just throwing this out there, but I believe the slightly beige/off white color of the King Starboard plastic is a color know as "Seafoam".

Some marine supply stores have samples on a chain you can use to compare colors.

Had custom made paint for the window frames, close but not perfect.

Efishnsea,

I'm going through this right now. I got the color samples from King Starboard, and none of them matched the existing trim on my flybridge. The closest one was "Fish White" but it is not exact. Nothing is easy, it seems!

Most pigments aren't color fast. Is there any tucked away corner you could look at, something that hasn't had UV exposure? Not that that helps you get a match... It's also possible that King Starboard got new colors. Is it even possible that it's not King Starboard, but a competitive product? For instance, everyone calls solid surface "Corian" but there are about 6 different brands...
