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 .

I got my 700 back from Joe & must say it is truly a work of art!

I installed a new bearing, teflon washers,bail spring & bail bumper(Mystic).It is like a new reel.I am going to take it Striper fishing with my grandsons soon.
Thank you Joe!

That 110 in RAL 6024 is pretty sweet.

Goes well with the brown handle and drag knob.

Any neon colors in the queue?
