Candy vs Pearl?

[Hardesty454]

Ive searched the internet and this site but cant find a good definition on candies and pearls. My very basic understanding is pearls are a flake thats added to your second base coat and candy is an actual clear coat? at least that is what Im finding in my searches? Im not a painter, nor will I be painting my truck when I get to that point but would like to have a better understanding of what these are.

Thank you painter guys for helping me out
