It did surprise me that looks good on a reel.

 :(     I am looking at the photos and the light shine on them are playing tricks . there are no bald spots / holidays , the sun was at my back .

The sage green Prismatic pss-1474 is spot on for the 700, there is a flat sage green pss-1474 that does not have a sheen to it .     My reels next to the 712 rotors ,look a little lighter by one shade .

  Now the 712 rotor are pissing me off because it pimpled with outgassing in some places .    All the castings shared the same time in the oven at 490 for 2 hours .
 I wish that it was easy to just sandblast the casting again .  This does not blast off when cured easy by any means .  Acetone , lacquer thinner and oven cleaner  does not lift it either.    At arms length it still looks good .
