Default Thermal color changing paint?

Does anyone know anything about this type of paint. I have been told that when it is cold (room tempature) then it is one color and then as it heats up it changes to another color. I want to know more about it because i plan on painting my bike soon and if i can get this paint for a decent price and can do the colors that i want then i would love to use it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

haha no i don't remember those shirts, i'm still a youngin' only 19 for me. But yea i would really like to experiment with this idea for paint if it's possible and not too expensive but i can't seem to find any information on it. The only info that i have found about it is the high tempature paint for like calipers.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercolor

"Generra created hypercolor underwear for the Japanese market. Unfortunately, the dye could rub off on surfaces with enough heat, and the dye transferred onto the bodies of the persons wearing the garment. Generra was sued out of existence."

Bwahahahahaha

Ok Im done lol.

My car is painted with HOK and it runs in the range of $60-80 a quart. Standard paints cost less than that.

This is a pretty well known car in the Honda scene from the UK. It's a Beat with colour change paint. She is pouring hot water onto the panels in the video.
