Looking at the photos and specs, they had
Cast iron BD200 models, Black Crinkle paint
Cast Iron BD200 "? ? ? ? ? ?,? Hammered Blue
? ? ? ?BD200? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?Hammered Green, looks to be a lighter green
And the SL models with their darker Hammered green, But I have one that was also in the Hammered Grey ( Blue)
And I have seen the SL1000 With the Hammered Green that had a slight yellow tint to them and I have seen them with a slight blue tint.
Age and exposure to light can change the colors, long term exposure to flourescent light bleaches the color away.

Use this link to get to the old site. Once it loads look at the photo and specs of the Unimat at the top. It will change and show all of the models and there colors

?Unimat also came in a gray color, I have the head stock of one in that color, it was a red badged SL. The much sought after Rust-o-leum Paint is not a exact match, I have used it for many years. The color on the cap a very close match. But it is slightly lighter and does not have the courser texture that the original paint had. Maybe if you really built it up you might get close to the OEM finish, But I would bet that you would use up nearly a full can to get to that point. I have some photos of some drawers that I painted it and you can see the difference. A few decades ago there was a person online who sold every unimat part that they had and he has on his site a photo of every part, I have that saved some where and I think that you can still find it with the Way Back Machine. I think that he went to college and shut his site down a couple of decades ago. There is a difference in a factory spray job done with commercial spray guns vs a rattle can. I looked up Hammered paint years ago and bought a bunch of 1/2 pint cans at a close out once, The problem is that it uses some stuff that is harder to get in a paint anymore, stuff like Toulene.?

Here i have 3 unimat's, all total different tint green.
Because I don't think there is a true tint green, I can choose my own color.


Black it is
