st orange nd black wheels maybe?

[Jack]

Asbo Orange will soon go out of fashion IMO (assuming it was ever IN fashion in the first place). Jamaican yellow is good, although I prefer Mustard yellow...

[bowdleyb]

I agree never liked it from the day i painted it
its a git to keep clean
Im going for a two tone silver and gunmetal grey
after ive done some mods
to door handles

i wasnt being daft :wtf:

[Nazza's Nova]

it will look silly tho wont it

[Matt2107]

Do it mustard yellow.... don't for the love of good put that awful orange crap on it. Obviously this is just my opinion.

[bowdleyb]

mine used to be white

[bowdleyb]

but when your a painter your choice is endless

[Nazza's Nova]

thats true i like my bright colours i wanna make my car stand out i like the pearlescent white on novas

is it a hard job to do be 3 stages im guessing

[lee coley]

i did a friend corsa pearl white yeah it was done 3 stage but it loked sh1t hot.

i used pearl violet,in the sun it went pink/violet,but theres loads of pearls to be had,i used water based paint which is milky compared to solvent,solvent would look cleaner.

[bowdleyb]

pearls are quite easy to paint the milkyness yoza is talking is only a problem when using them over a colour other than white.
check out ebay for custom paints like flakes ice pearls and candys if i were you
i bought a sh** load of flakes off there and there quite cheap and easy to use
top tip if painting a pearl always paint the door jams first

[lee coley]

what i ment was if you look at solvent pearl its clear,water based pearl is white,

[bowdleyb]

not all of them
depends on make
