Colors of C/2018 F4-A (left) and B (right) in terms of gr and ri indices. The weighted mean values of the gr colors of the two components are shown as horizontal dashed lines in both panels, with the shaded regions representing the respective standard deviations as ±1σ uncertainties. No significant color variation for either of the components beyond the noise level was seen. The two components shared a statistically similar color.
