these panels are manufactured using a photo-aluminum process nearly  
identical to the Moog systems on the 1960s, and therefore do not use  
any paint in the manufacturing process. it is an anodised aluminum  
finish whose artwork is rated to over 10 years of direct solar  
radiation and as such is certified for exterior legending on the  
International Space Station. outdoors on planet earth they wouldn't  
fade for 60 years. if used indoors they will never fade, and the  
artwork will never rub off .. though they can be scratched.

these are logistically MOTM-compliant: they fit in MOTM-19A rails  
with 8-32 3/4" machine screws and use a 4-position MTA-156 header for  
15 volt power. they will not match for finish or fonts, and violate  
the MOTM knobs-and-jacks grid.
