Paint Test
After talking to my friend Tony Cetta, we thought a trip to the paint store would be a good thing to look at chips. My friend Bob and I picked up Tony and headed to Quincy where the store, Jeff the painter, uses is located. Remember I had decided on Mercedes Iridium Silver. Well after looking at about a million chips I decided on a Light silver called Sun Light silver. Can't tell them apart, and it's also less expensive.. On Jeff and Tony's suggestion I bought a half pint to test shoot. We took it to Jeff and he set up an old door panel and shot the color. Jeff says silver is hard to shoot as it can tiger strip and mottle. Even so, he said don't worry about the problems shooting it, just choose the color I want. We also talked again about doing a two tone. After thinking on it for a couple of days and doing more internet research I'm back to two tone blue on top and silver on the bottom If it comes out like I think, I will be awesome.
