Has anyone here color-matched with a paint supplier the blue control panel color and the beige? color for the frame and cover of a PA20A with the intent on repainting the unit? The finish on the cover of my PA20A is not the original color. I suspect you could go to your local paint supplier and have them scan and match the color.
Any help is welcome!

All versions of the PA20 and PA20A have a light grey / white speckled finish on the chassis cover.

As for the blue part, that changed over the years and there are three versions that I know of:

1) PA20 and PA20A series 2B - 2C: blue with a hint of teal
2) PA20A series 2D and 2E: closer to turquoise green
3) Last batch of PA20A series 2Es (1980?) and series B (1985?): light blue on brushed aluminum
