: OK I am painting my car and need to decide what color to go with. : It is a very slim chance that I will decide to go through all of the trouble of changing colors to the blue like Jacobs car. : I am pretty sure I will keep it white but here is what I am wandering about. : I have read in magazines in the paint descriptions of some cars it will say it has blue pearl or red pearl added...like super white with blue pearl. : anyway exactly what does this look like and is it put in the basecoat or the clear? I will probably keep the car white but I want it to be a little different instead of just plain white but I dont want the whole boat paint glitter that you see on some cars...that is why I am considering the added pearl (and not metal flake) because in the pictures of cars in mags that have that you cant really tell but figure you could in person (dont know for sure because havent seen any in person) : and for those that dont know my car it is super white. : Thanks,
i painted my stillen kit myself. it's the "oatmeal" color..
tri stage paint.
paint/chemicals alone cost over $300 for those relivately small pieces. i actually ran out of pearl and got lazy.
but it's not cheap at all what so ever. your paint cost alone may exceed $1000...if u go pearl.
keep in mind this is PPG paint..very good in quality.
: Like I said I posted this on the org too but want the opinions of the people here that dont go over there.
