Default small flake silvers

I am looking for a very bright and highy reflective in the sun that has small flake in it. I have been wanting to go to the Mercedes and Porshe dealerships to check paint out, but it's been cloudy lately. I plan to use Sherwin Williams paint so I will need the number code if it's possible. Any leads guys?

Are you looking for fine or coarse metallics in SW Ultra7000 line or something from SEM,HOK e.t.c.? Fine meatllics have better reflection once applied, coarse metallics have a different texture, but also look great,

It sounds like you're looking for Audi Reflex Silver. Its very bright but small metallic particles.

If you are still looking into using Silver and want to use Sherwin Williams then go with Planet Color. They have several silvers that you might be interested in. The paint chips on the Planet Color web site are very bad and do not represent the real colors. Go to your SW dealer and look at their Planet Color chip book,

10 4 on that. I have a planet color book. Have you sprayed any of the planet color paint system before?
