About this deal

At the top end of the market, the only limits are imagination and money. There are cars out there with real silver, gold and even diamonds mixed into the paint. If none of the above floats your boat, various car manufacturers use a range of other techniques to give even more lustrous finishes in a seemingly infinite spectrum of colours. You pay for it, though, with special finishes often adding thousands of pounds to the cost of a car. There are various methods for achieving a matte finish: using a primer with a high epoxy content, a high PVC content in the paint itself, or a flattening agent in the lacquer. Whichever method is used, the paint absorbs more light than it reflects, producing a dull sheen with a certain texture to the colour that has an appeal. You either love matte finishes or you don’t. If you do, you may well feel the extra expense and hassle is worth it. But don’t be surprised if your car turns out to be difficult to sell on. What’s special-finish car paint? The Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport L’Or Blanc was a one-off car with a paint finish featuring fine layers of porcelain; it was not cheap Pearlescent paints shine even more brightly and deeply than metallics, but they tend to be more expensive, and also need more car taken of them.

Color Charts Yes, it's me again. I have had success finding a n.american code for Lynx Flag Blue Metallic, or at least, the Lotus version of it which is called Racing Blue. I found this after asking friend and interesting car owner David Cohen who I should talk to. He suggested Standox and they stunned me by bringing up the formula immediately! What is depressing is that Standox is now part of Dupont....However, I find that it is too smokey grey as Doug Nye suggested

The pearlescent lustre is created by ceramic crystals in the paint that both reflect and refract light. That gives the colour a depth that even metallics simply can’t match. And under bright light, lighter shades become iridescent, appearing to be different colours from different angles, sometimes to spectacular effect.

Worried about your technique, or do you need some pointers on how to get a premium finish? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Watch our guide on how to spray paint a car and you’ll get a great finish first time. A metallic paint has tiny pieces of aluminium powder mixed into the paint. The metal particles reflect light, hence the shine. Metallics look their best under direct, natural light, but even on a dull day they still shine. Blue paint colors are both classic and on trend. Several shades of blue paint colors made the list for PPG paint's Trending Paint Colors for 2022, Sherwin Williams 2022 Color Collection, and Valspar's 2022 Colors of the Year. Krylon's 2022 Color of the Year was a vibrant blue-teal paint that would look striking sprayed on an outdoor bench, while Behr's 2022 Color of the Year was a soft and minty blue-green shade that would be perfect in a bathroom or kids' room.

Dichromacy

If you one of the standard paint options, there’s no reason at all not to go for it – but solid paint doesn’t draw the eye in the same way that a metallic finish does, and buyers on the used market may often favour a car with metallic paint. Dirt shows more obviously on metallic finishes than solids, so you may end up cleaning your car more often. Be careful, though, as the paint marks more easily. Use a proper car shampoo – washing up liquid contains abrasive salts – and make sure there’s no grit on the sponge. Over-zealous polishing causes swirl marks and car wash brushes can leave marks, too. But any marks can usually be carefully buffed out. It depends on how much restoration it needs. If you have a couple of stone chips in an inconspicuous place, you could consider applying a touch-up paint pen yourself. If you’re wanting to give the paint a more general spruce up, the best thing to do is to give it a good wash, then apply a clay bar to it (read up on how to use these), before applying a good-quality wax. If your car needs more serious work to its paint, we can only recommend you call in a reputable professional bodywork restorer. Change cars with carwow

Mainstream manufacturers tend to offer a limited range of pearlescent colours, but high-end brands often offer dozens.

Going even further, most high-end car manufacturers can create any colour you like. If you want your car to match your goldfish, or you want an entirely new colour, they will gladly oblige. Having relieved you of several tens of thousands of pounds for the privilege. The cost to paint a car in the factory varies from paint to paint, while getting a respray done can cost thousands of pounds, as components need to be removed or thoroughly masked off, and a car will often need repairs or corrective work before it is resprayed. Individual body panels can often be resprayed for hundreds rather than thousands, though. How do I find my car’s paint code?
