once again, like my paint, it is something that has to be appreciated in person under lighting. the camera cannot capture beauty in these specilaized colors.

for this color. imagine this...The base color is a dark metallic grey like a lexus grey.. then as you walk about it, it sort of pearls over and cream colors over like the clearcoat is pearling and the grey itself is comming over the paint, then it will sort of candy over as well. kinda hard to imagine.

Check out the second video from Drew Bros. Customs. It's on the right side of the page. The flames on the front of the truck seem to have the same paint. It really is

That's pretty nice-looking - is it just sparkle + chameleon?

no its not a color changing paint, it is a dark grey, its the clear/overcoat that is the key in this application. i have never sprayed this perticular color, but i have been in the booth when it is sprayed.

thanks for the compliment.

I second that

I THINK CBRD has a custom painted Evo. It's the cleanest, most simple, yet potent evo around. It doesn't strike me as a regular Apex Silver Evo. The color looks different for some reason.
