Sick of metallic paint...

Go grab a 202 Toyota color code Duplicolor paint can and spray it in anything, it definitely has a hint of metallic in it, even if they say it doesnt.even looking at my 2011 black Tacoma, you can see flecks of mica in it. And no, it isn't BSP, I've parked next to a BSP before and it's wildly different

 

The problem is that Duplicolor's "Exact-Match" BYT1566 is supposed to match both 202 and 204, except they're not the same colours. Why? I don't know.

I've looked closely at 2011+ Tacomas before, there's no metallic, but next time I'm at work I'll have another peak. I wouldn't want to be giving out wrong information.

From my own truck, I can tell you it does have some natural metallic fleck to it in the sunlight.

 

Don't knock primer.

 

That was the best porn I have seen in a while.

 

Was this pic taken at the Toyota of Lakewood in Florida? I was just in there the other day and saw a simular truck, it appears to be the same one, if so it sure is a small world we live in.

 

Post an up close picture and let us judge.

 

I had that same truck in that color. I loved that pickup.

 

If Toyota had any balls they would be leaders in automotive style rather than followers. What am I suggesting you ask, Wood exteriors. These are LONG overdue for a comeback.

 

Love the metallic paint offered with the Tacomas.

 

What if they offered wood paneling?

 

Old skool?

 

I agree I went away from white and bought the silver and dislike the metallic flakes, as it looks jacked up in certain light. I will go white again unless they offer that cement color!! Love it. I also love that 81 toyota and I had to save that pic.

 

I really hope they offer this tan color... I'd be all over it...

 

I was going to post the Cement Scion but it's already been done! Best car color out there right now. I also really dig the new tan they're showing.

 

I just looked at 3 different Tacomas we have on the lot with paint code 202, none of them have any metallic in the paint (one was a 2011, two were 2015's). Not sure what you're seeing, but it's either on the paint or something, because it's definitely a non-metallic black.

Don’t know how I missed this thread. I love metallic paint!

 

I'm going to say because you joined TW in May of 2017, and the last post was in June of 2015...

How did you dig up this corpse?

 

I clicked here by accident.
