Nebula Black Paint
Discussion
I think 'nebular' paint is the one with a huge amount of large metallic flecks.
This means that small touch ups are more problematic as it is more difficult to blend in.
One of the first T350s that I looked at was Nebular Blue and also covered in stone chips. The garage indicated that to correct this would mean at least a front end, if not a complete respray.
What the costs / litre were I couldn't tell you, I think there's a guy on here (gerbil?) who used to work at the factory who knows all the ins and outs - might be worth putting a thread in the main TVR section to see if you get a better answer.

My dads T350 is nebula Black.
It is expensive, something like £600 a litre or something similarly stupid,
.
We've got some black paint with silver flecks in it that covers stone chips really well. And once the sun comes out, you can't see any of them anyway.
Not the best pic in the world, but it shows off the effect quite nicely.

I have a Nebular blue T350.
Yes the paints expensive (I have asked!) but like the above when the suns on it you cant see the chips and a bit of blue wax fills them quite well.
All these cars are going to get chips due to how low they are etc. If you are going to let every issue worry you especially how much everything costs then don't buy one.

Hi, I have a Nebula Black Tamora, paint is £600 per litre I believe but the paint can be blended so unlike some paint effects it does not require full respray if you get some damage.
I have used a black gel pen to fill stone chips which seems to work fine, as another poster mentioned you dont really notice.

Now, we've been told the exact opposite of that. Its apparently a very very hard colour to blend.I have used a black gel pen to fill stone chips which seems to work fine, as another poster mentioned you dont really notice.
