Car Paint/Colour

[darahhitam]

What does it called actually? Saw few cars, old and new repainted with these colours. You know the sometime it looks dark greenish, goldish, yellowish, brownish whatever... more than 2 tones.

Heard twas called Multiflex or something like it? Even the clearcoat has colours? (should not call it "clear" coat anymore, eh?)


Still searching for sample colours on the web. :D

Would appreciate some enlightenment from fellow forummers who are experts in this field. :D

izit similar like this???

 

[artnet]

i saw a few in my area as well...
pretty impressive!!

 

[jethrel]

Correct me if I'm wrong ... would you happen to mean diamond paint?

I could be wrong but last I knew Diamond paint was like a few coatings of paint and looking at the car from different angles, you'd see different colours!

Freaking expensive mate!

 

[darahhitam]

Dzach2: Yup, very similar scheme to that, imagine THAT colour on a wide surface of the entire car, not rim alone!


Jethrel: Not so sure 'bout the actual name for it dude, just passing by some cars with the colour scheme.

:lol: I bet it is INDEED freaking expensive, but seeing many entry-level cars being painted in that colour makes me wonder. :D

 

[Raikkonen]

seen a few around too... very very nice indeed..
the one i saw was blue+purple...
sometimes i wonder, how r they going to register the colour on the
registration card leh?

WARNA : kadang kala biru, kadang kala ungu :lol: :lol:

 

[beatnik]

saw one civic ferio with dual tone colour.. a bit brownish.. a bit greenish.. looks wicked under the sun!

 

[darahhitam]

I think it'll be registered with the most dominant base colour. :lol:

BTW, anyone with actual NAME for the colour? Easier to find on the net...

 

[darahhitam]

Got this info from an old mate who's working with the PAINT industry.
The color's name is "chroma fare".
Correct me if I'm wrong.

Cheers.

p/s: I think I'm gonna snap some photos of the spotted cars mand post it here. If only I can juggle between riding a bike and photographing! :lol:

 

[darahhitam]

And I guess Jethrel was right - it's freaking expensive @RM2000 per litre? :o

 

[whatdamn]

isn't it known as pearl type paints as well?

 

[darahhitam]

It's not just pearl methinks.

Btw, saw another one yesterday, an EF with that colour. Couldn't snap it in time. Dang!
