They look the same to me

The flake in your "flake popping" pics looks the same as my flake.

Hi, as a newbie I need the Black Gold and Pearl black cleared up too.

I've a Ph2 172 thats black, but in the sun you can see Gold flakes.

So does Pearl Black have a gold metallic look to it? or am I just blind and wearing my gold contacts again?

 

[kully]

always thought black/gold was on 182 ? could be mistaken though

yeah see this is where i get confused. I've had metallic painted cars before and they all gave a very fine silver sparkle, but this is a more chunky flakey sparkle.

nevermind. I'll just settle for calling it black. :S

 

[al]

I'll take a pic of mine tonight providing there's still sunshine!!

 

[Acejon]

[Willliams]

Then there is my Ottoman Blue 182....

"OTTOMAN blue"....? wtf...

 

[Rich]

I think Renault Renamed Artic to Ottoman

 

[al]

your black gold paint looks great mate!

Lol! Which fetches us back to the topic: Is black gold the same as pearl black?

 

[Rich]

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[al]

 

[al]

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol, just winding you up mate!

They are very similar in colour but I do beleive they may be slightly different.

I'm guessing this from respraying the rear bumper on an RSi a while ago and there being about 7 versions of metallic grey that we're all different!!

 

[Rich]

Pearl Black has a lot more silver flecks in it than the Black Gold.

That Pic you have posted does not look like the ones I have seen of Pearl Black close up.

 

[al]

Honest! It's my car, and i've not edited it!

 

[Rich]

Take one In the dark, flash, no sunlight. I think its the sun making your flakes gold.

No sun just flash
