Is there any different shades of this colour?

Iv just had me car resprayed and its a darker shade.

The paintshop seem to think that the paint has faded over 20yrs or so, but i think its a different shade (maybe actually the shade off the light blue KA's etc)

anyone know??

I've seen saffs parked up together and they always look different

 

There are different shades.

 

defiantly more than one


when i ordered paint for mine i hade the original colour b1 or whatever it was

always thought mine looked darker than other i had seen

 

think there is 4 shades

 

crap bodyshop if they can't match a colour imo

crap supplier who can't read a mixing card is usually the problem.

p.S iirc as Ran siad there are 4

 

i have heard there is 9 different shades of moonstone dont know how true it is tho

 

any descent paint shop have there own paint scheem and paint chips so they should be able to mix any colour and cheep laquer can make it darker

 

I too have heard the same Marco

 

Yes there is a few different shades to moonstone. Every paint system is different so some companys might have more shades than others. Your paint shop should have showed you some colour chips before putting on the paint.

 

i cant deny its a good job that was done, im maybe a perfectionist and notice the little things a bit too much.

 

there are as many diff shades as u want, diff paint companies shades will differ altegther and u can tint a color to what ever shade u want.


what did u have painted?? they should have blended it really

 

Here's a pic of a moonstone saph i repainted last year. The guy that owns it was a perfectionist. Showed him colour chips and he picked out what shade he wanted

 

repainting a car is easy its much harder to match existig finnish

 

im curious about this too as wanting mine done next year

 

depends on the car that has to be painted. its not to hard to match the finish if the paint work ain't in bad condition

 

i dont mean that like you think mate what i ment to say was that if your painting a full car all you have to do is get even coats of base you dont need to worry about colour match
