Metallic White Paint

[Tez162003]

I'm going to paint my new Brembo Calipers this weekend hopefully, so I need to go buy the paint, however I don't know what colour to get. I am after a really good bright white metallic paint.

 

Do you guys know of any cars, be it Nissan, Ford, Vauxhall etc etc that has a bright white highly metallic paint colour that is not some special 3 stage paint like Aston Martin Morning Frost White. I want to simply do white primer, white metallic, brembo sticker and clear.

Have you thought about nissan gtr white?

On a side note.. Where did you get the bumper and bib combo on your old ewcort??

It was actually a 1 piece bumper, I just painted the bib black after the bumper was painted orange.

 

something like this

I think you can ask a paint supplier see if they can do something the pearl whites are all three stage I know because so is my Honda lol I don't think there's one you can buy off the shelf unless you got a paint gun and you can mix it up lol

I doubt very much you will get a high metallic white, that isn't 3 stage. As most are now 3 stage perl/metallic.

Only solution is to base them white, then add metal flake to the clear be it coarse/fine, then laquer them with the metal flake. Then you can apply your stickers and apply more clear coat as normal, should give you the look your after, unfortunately high sparkle whites are more custom, as it's not just a case of adding metallic to the white.

All sorted, I have gone for a 3 stage paint finish... Just for some brake calipers
