 SP's color codes are straightforward 2-3 digit identifiers that specify a very specific colored plastic. Sample chips of these plastics with their corresponding color codes can be ordered from SP. '''Do not order custom keysets from SP without first ordering a set of color chips for the material that you plan on producing parts in.''' Color matching in photos is near impossible, so SP cannot provide you with color accurate photos of a material before it is produced.
-* Note that color codes determine not only material color but also the type of material. Hence, if there exists a color BFN in ABS, there will not be a color coded as BFN in PBT, although SP may offer a pair of matched color in the two materials.
