In shadow it looks almost burgundy, while the pearl brings out a warmer red on the curves. It suits Golf, Passat and other Volkswagen saloon and hatch kits of that period, and it is a tasteful alternative to bright reds on any modern car model. Build it up gradually for an even pearl effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eThe problem with pearls\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePearl effects show every mistake: wet passes cluster the pearl into blotches, and uneven coats change the colour from panel to panel.
