How do you read number plate under hood
 

I remember seeing a website that explained how to read all the numbers on the plate under the hood (the one that looks like an industrial strength computer punch card). Can someone point me to it, please?

What I need is the paint code. I think my car is painted Anthracite Grey, but I'm not sure.

Thanks,

Gary
