I may advise people to get pints before they paint their car but it is for this reason. I worked at a shop and the owners girlfriend wanted her car redone in a new color. After all the work was done she picked a color and said thats it I want This color. She had looked at so many colors she thought she new what it would look like in the sun. After it was painted she just had that look of horror. http://www.chevelles.com/forum/frown.gif Now you know why I advise test a pint first befor doing a whole car.

I know what you mean, I have 5 empty pints of DBC base in my garbage right now, and on every one when I saw it in the chip book I said " that's THE color"! I still haven't decided what color to paint my 70, but I am glad I tested some of the colors on the side of a parts car before spraying my whole car.
