Dear Bert,
I have my 150's at the paint shop and then I saw the beautiful job you did on the Swing (white/pearl). What is that paint? The paint guy said he could do it if I could tell him waht the paint is. Unfortunately, (for a lot of reasons) I am in the USA and I need the paint quickly. Is it a brand and type available over here?
Thanks,
Bob Figlio

Hi Bob,

I do not know the brand, I am not the painter...
I do know how the paint job was build-up though, after the first layer of primer the horns receive the basic plain color. On top of that the horns receive the pearl layer (something like metallic with very fine particles having different directions all reacting different to light). On top of that a good layer of transparent lacquer for protection and finish.
It is a "standard" paint job as used in the car industry, that is all I know.
Ciao,
Bert
