I am going to be repainting my car soon. I wanted to keep the car inline with the black and red. So i was wondering if there is a Black paint with red flakes in it. If so id like to know the color code and if there is a picture or link to the pic it would be greatly apprecated. Thanks.

 

i'm not sure if their is a specific black color code with red flakes on it but you can always add them as a "pearl" color to the clearcoat.

 

Talk to the paint shop that is going to paint your car. If they have half a notion of how to mix paint you should be able to tell them exactly what you want and it can be mixed.

 

actually why don't you stop worrying about your paint and figure out whats going on with your engine oil???

 

Because at a car show, you don't look at engine oil. You look at paint. It's obviously more important to impress other people than anything else.

BTW, I have no clue what you're talking about. I just don't like the black paint with red flake idea. So I figured I'd lash out.

 

lol heres the thread i was refering to:

I had a 90 Civic Si that had black with red flakes in it. I think it was called Flint Black. It was the OEM paint.Really looked good in the sun but it might be hard to see under the lights of a car show.

 

I had a 89 civic that was that weird black with flakes in it. I don't like flakes in my black. I just like to look at the abyss.

But since the OP wants to...why the F don't you just ask the paint shop?

Or just paint it flint black. Tell everyone it's a 89 civic.

 

Wow, "B serious" you need to chill out dude. OP I think the best thing you can do is just do a red pearl over a black base coat (a tri-coat: base coat, mid-coat, clear). Do not put pearl in your clear, and Flint black might have a teeny tiny speck of red in it but there is no way you would notice it if you didn't know it was there.

 

Well i got the oil issue figured out. SO there is nothing to worry about. I wanted to know if there was a OEM paint code with red flakes in it thats all. Didnt have to be a stock Honda color it could of came from any car. Either way. Thanks for the input. I guess ill have to make it a custom thing.

 

Another thing you could do is go to a local paint store (PPG, DuPont, whatever) and ask to look in a paint chip book or if there is a color they can recommend.

 

I never thought Flint Black Metallic had red flakes, but I guess that's a matter of opinion.

OP, this is the forum you're looking for: https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-acura-28/

 

I am chill. I'm also very good looking.

 

I only like flakes in my milk.

Maybe you should contact these people for their color code
