Aston Martin has several black paints available. I’ve searched but found no description of Nero Black. Can anyone here help?

Other black colors as described in another thread here:
Onyx Black has Silver flakes
Storm Black has Red flakes
Carbon Black has Blue flakes
Jet Black is just Plain black

Thanks!

I thought Nero Black was a Ferrari colour........so it may just be a customer one off order.

That’s a genuine possibility that I’ve considered, but Nero is just the Ferrari name for jet black. It seems odd that anyone would pay for an out of range version of a color Aston already offers.

I’ve seen Nero in reference to Aston paint more than once, including this article that specifically calls out other Ferrari colors:

That is Alwin’s website and was set up to reflect what was happening when the V12 Vantage Roadster was announced and being delivered. Wouldn’t read too much into Nero not being recorded as a Ferrari colour. It would only have been if the owner referred to it that way.

I must say I always thought it was a Ferrari colour and I am not really sure whether it is the same as Jet Black or not. Although, I don’t think Jet Black was an option back in 2012 as I think it came in later.

Ferrari nero is a solid black with virtually no other colour, IIRC it's 99% black, 1% purple. Nero Daytona is a metallic black which can look almost charcoal

Ferrari offered two Nero Blacks in the mid-nineties and early two thousands . Both have a 901 code. The difference between the two is that one is metallic and the other is a single stage nonmetallic black. I believe both are produced by PGP. The nonmetallic PGP code is 95035 is that's any help.
