Gotcha Col. I have been thinking on a paint colours since making my 6" refractor last year.
For my 100ED I'd like Cherry Red and Gloss Black everything else, rings, focuser.
Also like white, and black everything else
Personally I dislike white rings etc…. like Skywatcher and the Black Diamond scopes….did they get that wrong colour wise or what! Reckon someone was looking at a Unitron negative when they decided on that scheme.
Two colours goes with the KISS principal
As long as they are the 'right' colours.
Happy deciding
Matt
