In Inventories Requests, normann1974 writes:    If you're in doubt which color the hoses are, why would you choose Flat Silver instead of PLG? Primarily because you said:    I bought this set in a large lot of sets. You can't know if the parts in this set have been tampered with. Also, flat silver makes more sense when looking at the set photo - these parts are clearly intended to be silvery to accent the metallic silver parts in the set. Further, there is some debate over whether PLG and flat silver are officially different colors or merely variations in what TLG intended to be the same color. You'll notice that this part only appears in 1 set in PLG:   *  78c07 Hose, Ribbed 7mm D. 7L / 5.6cm Parts: Hose, Ribbed 7mm D. and this only in 4 sets:   *  78c11 Hose, Ribbed 7mm D. 11L / 8.8cm Parts: Hose, Ribbed 7mm D. So the parts appear in a combined total of 5 sets in PLG, but in a combined total of 40 sets in flat silver.

[...] If you're in doubt which color the hoses are, why would you choose Flat Silver instead of PLG? I've argued that they're PLG and I believe my image shows it. [...] (75 months ago, Apr 7, 2018, to Inventories Requests)
