Motip Metallic Spray Paint - Blue - 400 ml

Product Information

If you one of the standard paint options, there’s no reason at all not to go for it – but solid paint doesn’t draw the eye in the same way that a metallic finish does, and buyers on the used market may often favour a car with metallic paint. Going even further, most high-end car manufacturers can create any colour you like. If you want your car to match your goldfish, or you want an entirely new colour, they will gladly oblige. Having relieved you of several tens of thousands of pounds for the privilege.

Blue paint colors are both classic and on trend. Several shades of blue paint colors made the list for PPG paint's Trending Paint Colors for 2022, Sherwin Williams 2022 Color Collection, and Valspar's 2022 Colors of the Year. Krylon's 2022 Color of the Year was a vibrant blue-teal paint that would look striking sprayed on an outdoor bench, while Behr's 2022 Color of the Year was a soft and minty blue-green shade that would be perfect in a bathroom or kids' room. Dirt shows more obviously on metallic finishes than solids, so you may end up cleaning your car more often. Be careful, though, as the paint marks more easily. Use a proper car shampoo – washing up liquid contains abrasive salts – and make sure there’s no grit on the sponge. Over-zealous polishing causes swirl marks and car wash brushes can leave marks, too. But any marks can usually be carefully buffed out. If you’re planning a car paint repair, don’t forget the essentials like car primer, tape, and car cleaning products to keep the rest of your car looking brand new. About our range of car spray paints The pearlescent lustre is created by ceramic crystals in the paint that both reflect and refract light. That gives the colour a depth that even metallics simply can’t match. And under bright light, lighter shades become iridescent, appearing to be different colours from different angles, sometimes to spectacular effect.It depends on how much restoration it needs. If you have a couple of stone chips in an inconspicuous place, you could consider applying a touch-up paint pen yourself. If you’re wanting to give the paint a more general spruce up, the best thing to do is to give it a good wash, then apply a clay bar to it (read up on how to use these), before applying a good-quality wax. If your car needs more serious work to its paint, we can only recommend you call in a reputable professional bodywork restorer.

Blue just may be the most versatile shade on the color wheel. With its diverse range of undertones and ability to pair seamlessly with other hues, this color proves why it is a standout among designers. A rich midnight blue evokes a moody, reflective feeling that's suitable for a home library, while a glossy aquamarine exudes just the right amount of energy within a living room. Delicate pastel blue walls can even transform modest bedrooms into peaceful and calming retreats that draw you in, and ocean-inspired blue hues are perfect for creating a spa-like bathroom.

Color Charts Solid paint is cheaper to produce and apply to a car when it is being built, and most manufacturers offer a limited selection of no-cost solid paint choices on a new model; options vary, but you may find a car has three solid paint options as standard (although some cars have only one free paint option), with red, white, blue and grey being common colours. The cost to paint a car in the factory varies from paint to paint, while getting a respray done can cost thousands of pounds, as components need to be removed or thoroughly masked off, and a car will often need repairs or corrective work before it is resprayed. Individual body panels can often be resprayed for hundreds rather than thousands, though. How do I find my car’s paint code?The vast majority of cars come with a ‘solid’ paint finish as standard, with metallic and pearlescent finishes costing extra (see below). Yes, it's me again. I have had success finding a n.american code for Lynx Flag Blue Metallic, or at least, the Lotus version of it which is called Racing Blue. I found this after asking friend and interesting car owner David Cohen who I should talk to. He suggested Standox and they stunned me by bringing up the formula immediately! What is depressing is that Standox is now part of Dupont....However, I find that it is too smokey grey as Doug Nye suggested At the top end of the market, the only limits are imagination and money. There are cars out there with real silver, gold and even diamonds mixed into the paint. There are yet more possibilities if you’re buying a car made from carbon fibre. Pagani, for instance, can add a coloured tint to the carbonfibre during the material’s manufacturing process – for the price of a whole, brand-new Ferrari. Bugatti charges a similar amount to have no paint at all, just highly lacquered, bare carbon fibre. You either love matte finishes or you don’t. If you do, you may well feel the extra expense and hassle is worth it. But don’t be surprised if your car turns out to be difficult to sell on. What’s special-finish car paint? The Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport L’Or Blanc was a one-off car with a paint finish featuring fine layers of porcelain; it was not cheap

A metallic paint has tiny pieces of aluminium powder mixed into the paint. The metal particles reflect light, hence the shine. Metallics look their best under direct, natural light, but even on a dull day they still shine. On the flip side, pearlescent paints are even more susceptible to marks, they’re even more difficult to repair than metallics, and special care needs to be taken when washing a pearlescent car, as they’re relatively susceptible to damage from tiny bits of grit that may be on your car-washing sponge. What’s matte car paint? The Cupra Formentor can be specified in Magnetic Tech matte paint Pearlescent paints shine even more brightly and deeply than metallics, but they tend to be more expensive, and also need more car taken of them.
