Can you hep me match the PPG paint color “burnt copper” with a CMYK color so I can print material that match the paint on my motorcycle?
I’m guessing from the paint name and application that this is a metallic paint (on with some metallic flakes in it to give some nice angle-dependent effects on the bike). Such paints can’t be reproduced with a simple CMYK value since their appearance changes with angle. If you picked one CMYK value then you would end up with something that would look like a fairly boring brown. Companies like PPG make their marketing material by coating color cards with actual paint samples to illustrate the angle effects. In other printed material, or on their web page, you will notice that they show the paint on three-dimensional objects (either simple shapes or finished products) to communicate the color effectively. So, the best I can offer you is to reproduce some images of the bike for your marketing material and perhaps do some visual matching for other artwork. Even for simple colors, there is probably no conversion between specific paints and CMYK or Pantone colors. If there is, you would prob
