2 tone paint question ?
Hey Ive searched the forum for this but i cant find it.
Is it posible to have a Black FD that changed to silver at diferent angles when you move around it. Like the FD in this pic I attached......just like that but with Black and silver where the purple appears.

ain't that easy... sorry to say, chameleon style colors can't just be "mixed up" the pigments are too complicated and are unlike those in normal paints. If it isn't manufactured, you can't get it(unless you know god)
I admit that it would look sick, you might be able to get a similar effect usind an overcoat of house of color's new ice pearls (not sure if they make a silver or not, you should check that), but it'll never be exactly the same.

Any metallic paint will slightly look silver from angles.
The paint has microscopic pieces of real metal in the paint, and they capture light and sparkle a silver color. Although it is not really changing to silver, it does give a silver look to black.
Maybe a black pearl would make black look silver? I dont know
your best bet would be talking to a good bodyshop and be firm on what YOU want...

Black to silver will be very hard to do. You can try using pearls, but too little will have no effect and to much will change the black. How do I know? I tried it using pearls in the clear. By the time I got the silver to flash the black resembled a brownish color. It is much easier to flash colors that closer to each other.

That sounds like a sweet idea Eagletsi.
Thanks mate. Cas down here in NZ we have some fellas who could probably cook up my black silver idea.

glad u know GOD! maybe it'll make things easier
. anyway, perhaps black with graphite pearl would do the trick. I can't wait to see how this turns out, should be sweet if it works!
and a sidenote... I know it was chromillusion... just had a brain fart at the time. and I was speaking about his post-"black to silver" would imply a two color change, therefore fitting the criteria of a chameleon paint...
no hard feelings... just defendin myself

This is probably a stupid question but......... I recently got my car painted Evolution gold. I was wondering if I could now get it sanded back a bit and make it look kinda like the car in the pics.
Wish I put more thought into it when i was choosing a colour.

the MR2 in those pics is a candy gold by house of kolor.
Its a 6 layer paint job. If youve heard of the movie High Octan 2 you might know what Im talkin about. In that movie they spray that car.
