Color range of PLA Premium and CPE and its RAL and Pantone equivalence

The theory of color is a group of basic rules in the mixture of colors to achieve the desired effect by combining pigments. By combining 4 basic pigments you can achieve all the colors of the chromatic range. This, which a priori seems very simple, is an art in the press and, led to 3D printing, is still more complex.
