Which is the correct light blue for the undersides on the HE 162? The instructions don't give the RLM number.

thanks
Mike

Try RLM 76 or 78. They should be about right 65 was a little too blue for the 162.

Hi there. Russell here, I would go with RLM 76, or even the speculative RLM 84 if you are bold. RLM 78 tended to be a color used in the Meditteranian. Hope I spelled that right. Hope this helps you out.
