I have a early Ventus and it came with a orange/red nose and tip paint. Where can I find the matching color of that paint? I have a few scrapes that I want to touch up.

The color is probably an RAL color. Perhaps 3024. It is a european color system. Check with auto paint suppliers.




I see the 3024, was this a guess or did you know someone who had a ventus or SH glider?

Be aware that those colours fade out in sunlight, so touching up with

"fresh" colour might be detectable for a few years. I would consider

repainting the whole nose/wingtip instead.

Dennis, the maintenance manual for my Ventus 2CX states

Orange - (RAL-Code No. 2004) or Red (RAL-Code No. 3000 or 3024)

This is a 2004 manual
