      I am getting ready to restore a Majestic and am wondering what colors/colors the motor is supposed to be? Are there any color code numbers or other info to best get the correct colors? Any off the shelf colors that match?

      I would like to make the colors and the restoration as correct as possible.
      Thank you for your time

        I had a look at some vintage outboard motor paint sites (nymarine.ca and reprotint) but could not find anything. I wonder if it might be worth contacting them to see if they know? Majestics were built by Champion, could the color be the same as them?

        Sorry that I couldn’t be more help. Good luck, though!

          Have you inquired to Coopper Jess? He is the Special Interest group leader for Champion. I have asked him a couple of questions and found him to be very helpful.
          His contact information is in the AOMCI Directory….or you could PM him here. His username here is champhotrod

            Below are a couple of links that show motors with the factory color. I have a couple of these waiting in line to be restored, but I’ve never tried to match paint.

              Thank you for the info. I did see the videos and the motor I have is a two tone green-ish color. I sent a PM to Coopper yesterday but have not heard anything yet.
