Anyone know?
#2: Re: how many blacks does a 206 have? Author: Brian, Location: VVT Land, FifePosted: Tue Aug 17, 2010 2:44 pm ---- 2. Onyx black, solid colour, paint code: EXY. Obsidian black ,metalic black, paint code: EXL.
#3: Re: how many blacks does a 206 have? Author: Antix, Location: WorcesterPosted: Tue Aug 17, 2010 2:48 pm ---- There's only ONE black - but 2 finishes.
Either Onyx (non-metallic) - ON PHASE 1 CARS, or Onyx Metallic [aka Obsidian] - ON PHASE 2 CARS
The actual black is the same, but obviously the metallic has metal flakes in it (which makes it look lighter)

So that makes it 2 blacks then

black is a colour. Metallic is a finish, not a colour.
So only one COLOUR (Ryan asked how many different colour blacks are there?)
#7: Re: how many blacks are there for a 206? Author: Mikey2uk, Location: StevenagePosted: Tue Aug 17, 2010 3:01 pm ---- Technically there is no colour as black as it is mixed up with all different colours.
You have the solid black which is EXY and you have the met black which is EXL
So there is 2 blacks.
Metallic is not a finish it is a base coat that has metal flakes in.

#9: Re: how many blacks are there for a 206? Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Tue Aug 17, 2010 3:05 pm ---- blacks a shade, not a colour
#10: Re: how many blacks are there for a 206? Author: Brian, Location: VVT Land, FifePosted: Tue Aug 17, 2010 3:10 pm ---- Ya don't want to put Onyx black next to Obsidian black from panel to panel as they look entirely different due to the metalic flecks in the colour coat of Obsidian. Obsidian is definitely a touch lighter. llama's (Alanah) old 206 had the 2 different shades on it and she said herself that it looked horrendous and it was noticeable even though she bought the car like that!
In my books...there are 2 shades of black, otherwise Peugeot wouldn't have called them (that's 3rd person plural) Onyx Black and Obsidian Black.
I think on my 180 sometimes it looks like a really dark gray on a really sunny day when the light's at it's highest intensity. Last edited by Brian on Tue Aug 17, 2010 3:11 pm; edited 1 time in total

#13: Re: how many blacks are there for a 206? Author: Antix, Location: WorcesterPosted: Tue Aug 17, 2010 3:16 pm ---- Brian - I agree with the difference!
My Onyx (non-metallic) GTI had metallic black sideskirts which made the skirts lighter in colour - even though it was still Onyx black (but metallic).
