Yamaha Outboard Motor Color?
« on: February 18, 2009, 11:12:24 AM »
Trying to match the color but can't find anything that looks right at local stores
The motor is a 1992 225hp 2 stroke TXRQ

searching online my choices are
Moeller 114-025469 #6969 Yamaha Blue Metallic
or          114-025515 #7003 Yamaha Dark Blue Metallic

neither sounds right- it's closer to dark gray than blue in real life... I realize it is likely faded from yrs of sun.....

anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks all; I also read there is a clearcoat required over the color coat. Some say no, some say yes. I gotta get over to the dealer and (hopefully) talk to someone who knows.

Some of the colors do require a clearcoat.
This one does not although it would not hurt and add to the durability. The manufacturer is ColorRite. Matt.
