I had a real hard time with this color.
Customer supplied a junk yard bumper and fender.
(That was a nightmare in itself)
The color I had mixed by the paint code was way, way to dark
and no alternates any lighter.
It looked like a dark beige, I mixed Toyota bright white with it to tone it down,
I kept mixing and doing spray outs because the pearl lightened it considerably.
I ended up with a 50/50 mix to get to what I wanted it to be, that's
half color mixed with half white, wow. then 5 coats of pearl.
I did the entire side of the car and the customer wants me to do more
when I have time so I have to be able to replicate this later.
I wonder now, when I do the back bumper later, maybe I should lighten
the mix for it? Will it do the same as the front bumper?
I have the old bumper, think I'll do a spray out on that first.
