    My 2014 was red. It was not my first choice, but I grew to really like it. After it got wrecked I told the dealer I was open to a few different colors. I was actually leaning towards a different color. Guess what color they got in first? Yup, red. Whatever. I love this truck, and I will say that the red sure cleans up nice.

    Actually NO, not all paintjobs are clearcoated. At least not with Toyota. Only the Metallics are. The solid colors(white, black and Quicksand) do not have a clearcoat.

    Non-metallics/pearls are single stage iirc without a separate clear coat.

    I understand them to be single stage paints too but I have been on car forums for over a decade and have always understood them to also have a clearcoat finish.

    With all due respect, that's not correct. Clearcoats are not only longer lasting, but also they're more environmentally friendly. Which is why mostly all companies were forced to convert over to clear coats in the 90s.

    Easy way to tell is get a bottle of polish or compound and buff it into your paint with an applicator. If your pad turns the color of your truck, there's no clearcoat. You're directly exfoliating the color.

    Not long ago we were investigating it on this forum. Someone was looking at getting a black 16. And my 08 White Taco did not have a clearcoat. I beloeve it was in one of the Toyota tech documents for color. Need to look for it.

    Can the owners of barcelona enlighten me a little as to how they perceive their color? I feel like every time I see the color, it's a different shade. As the color is dependent on the setting, do you usually see it as a bright red, pure red, or dark red? What's most common?

    It can be bright red, but certainly not "fire engine". I love it.
