My 'Project 112' PVD is moving along really slowly, the guy who does the coating is still waiting to assemble a big enough batch.

The process used is PACVD in graphite grey/black. I've read numerous times of original PVD Pams described as being pencil lead grey/black Google has plenty of images but i wonderd if anyone here has a factory PVD finished piece? and whether thay have any good, neutral balance colour pics they could share?

I'd like to get a comparison with what i'm offered in the UK, to what was original.

Much appreciated but i have since abandoned the idea. It wont be the real deal, as pointed out on my thread, nor will it be the correct factory finish, or at least their subcontractors :)
