What colour is this dimmer please guys because I think I am going colour blind (if that's possible)?

Looks liked brushed chrome/brushed steel or possibly BG's brushed iridium range (which I think is a bit darker than the steel/chrome option).

 

[telectrix]

brushed steel. chrome is never brushed, it;s shiny.

I know, but it's still a label that's attached to that kind of finish

It's a bit like the lamp vs bulb debate

 

[buzzlightyear]

shiny

very shinny .

 

[westward10]

Red.

What's funny?

 

[buzzlightyear]

What's funny?

It's funny because they don't know it is red.

 

[telectrix]

and he's also found a way to defy gravity. there's no facelate screws holding it up.

Thanks for the replies all. I tried brushed chrome and it didn't mach and then I bought a BG iridium one and that didn't match either. I have now got to go back to the customers with hopefully the correct match (whatever that might be).

All makes have slightly different shades of brushed chrome. I normally get the customer to source any fancy switches and sockets otherwise you always get.
I don't like that shade or is the anther option.
You spend an exceptional amount of time back and forth with samples for zero money.

Better to turn the dimmer around and see what brand it is. Otherwise you will be forever guessing and getting it wrong. Most makes have the branding on the back of them.

At least if we see the back it will narrow it down to a brand we might be lucky and have a part No. on it.
