candy paint??

[snowfire79]

what exactly is candy paint? i hear of all these candy paint jobs and they look real nice, but what exactly does that mean? i would like a paint job that always looks wet or shinny, more so than the regular paint jobs do even when polished clean. any suggestions??? i kind of want to go with black as the color.

black isnt really a great choice if you want something always looking wet and shiney.....black dulls easily.

plus black shows all the dirt real easy.
if you want your paint to look good, thier is no way around cleaning it. You can have the best paint job in the world with 8 coats of clear coat, if it goes a couple weeks with out a wash, it looks like poo.
My silver car seems to hide a lot of the dirt build up though !
silver is a good color, not too exciting but good
