Colour Match is a system using Faber Castell colour coded
pencils that are matched to the Resene Total Colour System. This system
helps you to illustrate the colours you have selected and enables you
to confidently present colour concepts to your clients.
Resene Colour Match is a simple system to use. Read the following directions
and explanations on how to achieve the best results.
How the system works
Resene has created pencil recipes for standard Resene colours. The pencil
recipe for a colour tells you what pencil numbers to use to create that
colour. Where the pencil number has brackets around it, this means the
pencil should be only used lightly in the mix. The code numbers for
the pencils are printed on the non-lead end of the pencil.
Here’s how it works:
Step one
Decide which Resene colours you wish to use in your design.
Step two
Look up each colour using the Resene pencil recipe list or the Resene
pencil recipes in our Online Library to find out the appropriate pencil
recipe for that colour. Resene pencil recipes are available in a hard
copy list available free from your Resene
ColorShop or view recipes online in the Resene
Online Library.
For example:
To create the colour Resene Tea, look up Resene Tea in the Resene
pencil recipe list or in the Resene
Online Library. This will tell you that you need to use pencils
271 and 270.
Step three:
Consider how you want the colour to look, such as textured, intense,
bright, subtle. Select your preferred technique
depending on the look you want to achieve.
