No. A trademark is not a recipe. What matters is the actual look. As for values, "Ferrari Red" is has defined RGB values according to colorhexa (RGB: (239, 26, 45), CMYK: (0, 89, 81, 6).0) and I am sure is outlined in any contract involving Ferrari sponsorship. No doubt Coke also has very specific values for its version of "red".

- xanderlewis 2y agoAh — true. I thought the dyes used for each colour would be fairly standard, though.

- kube-system 2y agoThey're close, if we're just talking about printer ink. But if you're coloring some other item, you might be using entirely different materials.
