Re: 60-66 metal flake paint
The tough part is I have to redo all of my interior! It's red and black!! Cool for Christmas but not any other time of year!!

Re: 60-66 metal flake paint
My daily driver went through a hail storm so I flaked the hood and roof gold and the sides flat black. Makes me want to flake my panel truck

Re: 60-66 metal flake paint
Funny i had the idea to paint the roof gray with red flake but we had the green and silver lying around!! now i need to get it all one color!!! I think i am going to match the interior and find a vinyl 50s restaurant booth material that is green with silver flake!!! Guess i will stick to my Serape for now!!!

Re: 60-66 metal flake paint
I think it looks awesome! Go for it, especially if you are advertising your business the way it Pops (plus you can write off the expenses as advertising) I'm just saying..........

Re: 60-66 metal flake paint
I dig it. Not my "cup of tea" so to speak, but I do like it for sure. Gives some pop to the roof. Cool.
