Spotted-Red Jewel tintcoat Camaro in Bright Sunlight - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

paulm85 · 12-28-2008, 09:11 PM

The way it was explained to me about the extra cost is that the car is actually painted red and then the red jewel tint is put on, like a candy red metallic, then the clear is put on. So that extra step is what costs extra. I, for one don't mind paying it for a color that looks just great on these cars. That is why I am getting one of those with black stripes. It will be classy, sophisticated muscle.

Great pics!!

The "tint coat" is as the name would imply. If you know what "clear coat" is and you know that "tint" is another name used often for "color", you get the idea. Instead of a clear top coat there's a color tinted "clearcoat" on top of the base coat. In this case it is red.

If it looks as good as this RJT-like painted Aston, should be a winner!

naw the cops are defs. attracted to red in my neighborhood. I would say 50 percent of the cars i see pulled over in my city are red. but then again they are mostly vette's.... lots of long stretches of road.

After about a month or so away from the site, got a lot of catching up to do, but had to start in the picture thread. Great to see the car in the color I want to get for myself.
