I think we may be pretty close in the look of colour however I am Chianti Starmist with 1% Spectraflair which is different to your base colour I think.

Nice car but.

I don't think 1% spectraflare would do that to Chianti Starmist. It's a very dark red in the shade, almost black. That looks a dark pink of some sort.

I must take some better pics but this shows how dark Chianti Starmist can be!

It most definitely is Chianti Starmist and that is what 1% spectra flair does to it. Surface and Design in Blackpool mixed and sprayed. Remember cameras see things that we don't.

Looks like Starmist Blue to me.....

[swisstoni]

Ah that looks more like it. I might treat my 500 to a visit to S&D one day.

It's a Chameleon colour... That pic looks blue as the sky was blue when the picture was taken.

It now changes colour from dark red/bronze to purple and rainbows depending on light levels. They really do a great job.
