After 5 long years off the road, my beachbuggy has finally been towed to my garage at home (fk yeah!) now I know I am miles of painting it, but I have decided to keep it black, but as we all know there are about 60 bajillion shades of black. I want to narrow it done, hoping that someone here owns a black car with similar paint on it

what I want.
Deep gloss black like your looking into the abyss, but I want silver metallic in it, not pikey fairground dodgem type metalflake, but when the sun hits it, I want to see a fair bit of silver speckles if that makes sense

Anyone got something like that? Preferably off the shelf and not a custom colour, so I can walk into my paint supplies and give them the paint code

hmmmm,
Are you looking for a "one coat does it all" if so this would suit
Item number: 250419398030 on ebay (didnt know if I was allowed to post a direct link)
I note you say you want a deep gloss so you really need a good quality clearcoat which would make the above paint unsuitable, if this is what your looking for any paint supplyer will be able to help with your specs, theyll make it on the spot.
