Homer Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 gold base coat ??? Was looking through the pics of it been sprayed and the base coat used was a dark grey almost a matt black ...... They didn't photo all the stages unfortunately, it had a huge amount of layers... £6.5k job!! The paint alone was over £1.5k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCK10 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 (edited) gold base coat ??? Was looking through the pics of it been sprayed and the base coat used was a dark grey almost a matt black ...... Primer maybe? HOK paints can be pretty complex as far as i know, and require quite a few different coats for different finishes... EDIT: They didn't photo all the stages unfortunately, it had a huge amount of layers... £6.5k job!! The paint alone was over £1.5k Yeah, this...

_Shane_ Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 I have a contact over here for HOK paints, i did remember that you must keep everything the same brand, i.e base coat, primer all must be HOK Will pay my spray painter a visit tomorrow and see what he has to say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 TRD-Rob is a good mate of mine, if he doesn't have the colour specs himself I think I have them in an email somewhere. Let me know if you're interested. The gold base coat was HOK too as well as the primer and laquer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your car looks good too mate :-) 1.5K just for paint, "holy cellulose Batman". I didn't even pay that to have my whole car painted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Shane_ Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 1.5k is far too much for paint, i remember purchasing roughly 2 liters of hok Candy red, the primer, laquer, hardner, this that and it all cost me about 250 euro, this was about 6 years ago. Im going back to the shop tomor so will update this tomor night with prices @ Daryll - if you can dig out the email of what base was used that would be great, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know if you're interested. The gold base coat was HOK too as well as the primer and laquer. I wouldn't mind this actually if you'd be kind enough? I've wanted a supra in this colour since I initially saw it on this a few years back... Would be much appreciated if you could send me the specs Rob has in a PM, if you do still have the email, so I've got it for future reference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im going back to the shop tomor so will update this tomor night with prices @ Daryll - if you can dig out the email of what base was used that would be great, thanks There was a lot more than that from what I remember, the HOK candy apple red was around £1k alone bought direct, I think there was a lot of other products used, but the prices seem to match up to HOK consumer prices. If you can get it cheaper all credit to you I wouldn't mind this actually if you'd be kind enough? I've wanted a supra in this colour since I initially saw it on this a few years back... Would be much appreciated if you could send me the specs Rob has in a PM, if you do still have the email, so I've got it for future reference Will let Rob have a look himself first His paint is the same as in the picture you posted. Artificial lights do a lot to enhance the paintwork on metallic/candy paints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
