Got some paint splashed on a few this weekend....

And here's what they are:

The Thunderbird is a combination of pewter silver, and a Ford color called Amethyst. It's a wicked color with a lot of odd pearl/metallics in it. To look at it under normal inside light, it looks black. When you get sunlight on it, a pile of odd colors show up. It looks like the sky at night, on a clear night....maybe if your near area 51 or a nuclear plant. Sorry the picture looks dusty, I'm not sure what happened there. The car looked clean to me.

This Riviera I painted what Mazda calls "spicy orange". It's a tricoat, consisting of an orange base, and a gold pearl. I had coarse pearl mixed into it, rather than the fine pearl it called for. I like the showy look it took on. It should look pretty sweet as a cruiser.

I have a LOT of polishing and buffing ahead of me.......
