im getting parts of my interior done in flip paint at end of the month. remember tho, the flip wont be as noticalble coz there wont be as much light hitting it esp. if u have tints. ill let u know how mine looks when i get it done and ill find out where u get the paint from

its supposed to be a madder effect if the base coat is mettallic and the darker the colour the better. so my base is going to be mettallic black. the flip is green, gold, blue ,purple

no mate u have to buy flip paint. thats the way it comes. then u prime etc as normal. spray on a base coat (any colour but darker-better flip) then the flip paint and then the lacquer. when i get it done ill get some pics up

Honestly dont know mate, but i dont think so as Halfords probably doesnt seem to realise the value of this kinda paint.
