hey do you know what colour your car is in the 2 last photos??Originally Posted by vkberlina
looks like its just been painted.
is it Asteroid Silver Metallic?? if not what colour is it??
i like it....![]()
cheers....
Yes it sure is Asteroid Silver we painted it in Spies Hecker 2Pac with U-Pol clear it looks fantastic. The colour looks a little different in the photos as its in the shed with the fluros on.
If your looking at painting your car I can highly recommend to paint the car in Glasurit or Spies Hecker they are both great products.
Cheers

yeah i sure am painting my car, half way through it at the moment.Originally Posted by vkberlina
its had its first coat of primer and spray putty.![]()
i think i am using Spies Hecker paint but its not 2pac im using acrylic.
what brands of clears are good??? or doesnt it matter???
i think i am using 'Standox' as my clear but im not sure
can you get Asteroid Silver in a more coarse flake???
Cheers....
Scott
In the 2pac the main component is Fine Silver which is MB518 there is are larger flake silvers available to its just a matter of adding the other tinters to it. From memory when I painted my VK in Acrylic the Spies Hecker acrylic tinter irridecent is pretty close match to asteroid silver so I think you might been to have a chat to your paint place but it can be done.
cheers
