Stripe or Accent Advice
Hey everyone! I got some paint a few months ago, and it is about time to start painting my car. I bought it off of EBay, and I
got Orion Silver House of Kolor paint, which I wanted, but it came with an extra can of Burgundy Candy. I'm pretty sure I don't want to do the entire car in this Burgundy, but I thought I might want to use it, I had considered the Gran Sport dashes on the fender, maybe a single stripe. I have an '84 Firebird with no pictures, if anyone would photoshop someone else's car, with any ideas it would help sooo much! Im open to any suggestions, I would like to do something different than everyone. Thanks guys!

hok paint is real good stuff, that orior silver is used as a base coat and the burgandy candy give it the color to varied degrees the more candy you put on the darker it gets. You will still need reducer, catalist, and clear coat. Check hok web site to see what the candy paint does. Kandie has the same set up on his car and it looks great although i;m sure it is not burgandy candy. If your going to paint a strip or anything you will need a sealer thingy to seal the silver before masking the stripes.

here is a sight ive been looking at to buy my paint, they have the tech pages you need and look up the paint number in the candies and you will see what the maroon can do with coats.
