On our helmets we use a dark purple and a true gold color, on everything else it's more of blue/purple and yellow

This must come to an end.


I need the helemt color in a spray can. If I buy "gold" then it will be like the Georgia Tech one above.

I'm well aware our colors are purple and gold, but that shite we use is not "gold"...its yellow.

I'm just wondering if I wanted to paint a helmet to look somewhat authentic what shade I should use??

This was not meant to be a color circle jerk, I'm just interested in y'alls opinion on painting a helmet.

Wait....that commercial where the people bring in items to be matched up??? Lowes maybe?

I'll just bring in my mini helemt and get it matched up and save that color to my computer for future generations. Problem solved

The helmet makers refer to it as Green Bay Gold.
This is what Jeff Boss also referred to it as.
LSU and the packers have the same color helmets, but GB recently added metallic flakes to theirs a few years ago.

NO, ITS GOLD. A shade of gold. This has been discussed numerous times on here. See Gold color table link below
