Brightest red possible.

Looking for the brightest red I can find to paint my car. You can tell it needs new paint. Looking for deep, bright reds with no brown tones. Been thinking of Boyd's red or Blue Blood Red, but am open to other ideas.

Before reading your post, I was going to suggest Boyd's red anyway. Go with that, beautiful color.

We just got done sprayin' a guy's truck red...

When we rolled it out of the booth, three other guys ended up asking for that same color.

GM Torch red....absolutely gorgeous.

I think I'm going to go with Boyds. I've seen it in person and it's red enough. Bound to be cheaper than House of Kolor stuff too! Thanx for the input guys.

Another vote for Boyd's red. No brown tones.
