Mines listed as Arancio Atlas Pearl if that helps.....









Looks different in every picture and changes from an almost solid orange to bright yellow in direct sunlight.

That looks great, is Arancio atlas much different? Not sure how much the pearl changes the colour

Malcolm from S&D is best one to do the job to the correct formulation, but here's what I know:-

Arancio Pearl:bright with blue green sparkle




Atlas:flat colour not much sparkle




Others:
Lotus Chrome Orange

The 'pearl' just adds a little depth to the finish, gives it a soft sparkle without it being a heavy metal-flake type metallic. The only real way to compare would be to have two cars parked next to each other under the same light, photo's just don't do the paint justice IMHO.

Dave,

.....but as usual the first one was the one!

Try and get a sample done before work starts. They did a complete re spray on mine in crystal topaz pearl, very well done in fairness, but very disappointed that the pearl effect is not as pronounced as the original. When in the sun or strong light it used to glow with amazing gold highlights on the raised sections of body, now it just looks flat.

I've got to say I've seen plenty of cars in the Lambo pearl orange ....but Steve's car looks the best by a long,long way the paint really pops.

That is my favourite. Only really seems to work on a sag though. Anyone think a Cerb would look good in this colour?

Check "Ford Electric Orange" colour,
looks great, nearly same colour, but much cheaper!
