I was looking for a retro pastel shade of yellow laminate for a vintage trailer I am rebuilding and I liked the look of this Neon Yellow Formica. I purchased a sheet and found it to be MUCH brighter than it appears on the sample computer scans. It does indeed live up to it name of NEON Yellow. Just wanted to give others the heads up.

Argh, Jim, sorry you had that experience. With laminate or paint chips or anything really…you need to see samples first-hand before committing….online color resolution is impossible to depend upon. Thanks for the “neon” warning.

Another laminate you might take a look at: Arpa’s soft yellow seen here: http://retrorenovation.com/2008/10/02/retro-laminates-colors-from-arpa-compared-to-the-sherwin-williams-suburban-modern-palette/
