Which silver is that and what is "flow coating"?


It was a mazda color called Platinum Silver. The car had 4 base coats and 3 quite heavy clear coats, at that point it got blocked back with 800 grit and another 3 clear coats which are referred to as" flow coats ". I'm no expert but they seem to go on smoother for some reason and give a better finish off the gun, my car came out really shiny and smooth. I think because that is the finished product and the surface isn't being wet sanded and buffed it stays sealed and takes less maintenance and has a longer lifespan. As I said I'm no expert but I think that's the theory behind it all. All I know is it's super shiny, hasn't been rubbed and buffed and its as smooth as. Cheers
