Any pearl painted 311s
A pearl paint job looks great on a body with rolling curves ,I'm talking of the liter color showing thru on higher spots on the body ,I've seen some on 240z s and loved it

Yes, I had a 69 that I painted white pearl. I don't remember the paint code but I think it was used on Infinity cars. Here are some pix:

Re: Any pearl painted 311s
Nice wheels look good with it
I'm really talking the dual color ,top coat barely sprayed over some of the protruding body curves , so the under color come thru
I think they referred to it as:
heavy pearl or accentuated pearl
A gold or orange is 1st sprayed on the curved places then the other color coat is thin over these spots which let's the 1st color show litely

Re: Any pearl painted 311s
My base is Pearl White, and I agree Don, it does help accentuate the curves …

I'll be doing a dark blue pearl on mine in a few weeks (weather permitting) and I'll try to remember to update this thread with photos
