Searchig for the perfect color silver
 
Have a 68 Camaro that is about ready for paint. Looking for ideas or opinions of silver out there.

I really like the MotiV8r silver, but I would like to see it as a single color, it should looks really good by itself since it's a really shiny color, OR try using something silver/sand, I've seen that color somewhere else, can't remember where, and it looks amazing, use that mix, silver/sand and tell me what do you think, I bet it rocks :woot:

How about quicksilver metallic? Came on trans ams, camaros, and corvettes, you might want to check it out.

I can get you a color code tomorrow. This is very close to quicksilver metallic except it has some larger flakes. The gray is gunmetal......

I was also going to say go look at Mercedes and Lexus cars if you want an OE mix.

+1 for the Mercedes brilliant silver

Shaun your Pantera looks great in that color!

when ever i choose a color i try not to use a 3 stage kandy for a base so i like to use a factory base clear color insted of looking at a chip book i like to go to a slew of new car lots or used, find a color in natural lighting then get the code and go have it mixed.good luck my perfect silver ended up a 2002 crysler town and country.

If you like the really light, white, fine metalic, Mercedes / Porsche has it nailed. If you like a more steel silver, little greyer and bigger flake.........We had to make that for the Prodigy Vette and MotiV8r cause we could not find it in factory color.

Wow, that was not much help was it.

Mercedes AMG Alubeam. Not sure if its available here in the states yet. I've seen on the Mercedes display cars at the North American International Auto Show and I looks amazing. The paint looks like it is still wet.
