colors, extra thick film, extra bakes or other unusual or more costly procedures or
materials may be required. If specifying a bright white or bright pastel color which falls
into this group, specifying the paint code number at time of bidding will improve the
accuracy of your component manufacturer's bid. We call these colors Fluropon®

requirements before they bid. |
