Has anyone used this paint yet without Kandy over it?

The lit says it mimics the Kandy look without all the coats...

The next car that I paint I was going to give it a try. I would also like to hear from anyone that has used it.

PPG and I believe Dupont also have this type of paint out, but dont know what its called.

I do know that PPG now has some of the pearl colors converted into basecoat only formulas, thus allowing you to SKIP the pearl coat(s) but yet still get the pearl affect.

Ive painted a few Dodges with this new paint, came out pretty sweet, cant tell the difference.
Ive asked my PPG rep if he can custom mix me some of this paint in a bright chrome yellow but he tells me this paint DOESNT work to well when doing whites or yellows :(

Althou its NOT HOK but at least the technology is there.
