      Thinking about going white?

      I am thinking about painting my car white with black hockey stripes, I want a bright white not a creamy or metallic color. I was looking at some cars and was wondering what white they used. I don’t have any real question just wondering if anyone had some input.

      Just wondering if anyone knows some to look out for. It seems that that older cars are not as bright, but that may be from age or the paint long ago. For example is the Can-Am white from a 69 Corvette very bright?

      i just use a zero pigment white, cant go any whiter, tell the guys at the paint shop you want white with no additives. if you put it against alpine white or olympic it makes them look yellow almost, blinding in the sun. were doing my dads 55 bel air this white, ive used it on several cars in the past few years.

      my truck and bike "dont mind the dub logos on the truck that pic is from 06 those wheels are flat black and it has had a repaint and no emblems lol.

      The original Ermine white was a knocked off white. you don't want a pure white, the sun will cast it yellow. A pure white in the sun will have a few drops of black to kill the yellow, and a few drops of blue.This is one we did in Ermine about 3 years ago.
