Is that the paint that takes on a different hue when looking at it from different directions?

I know both PPG and BASF make color shifting paint. BASF made the paint used on MYSTIC Cobras, but it is my understanding that you cannot purchase the MYSTIC color. They have 2 other styles that changes between like 3 colors.

Steve, I talked a fellow at the paint shop a couple of years ago and he told me you had to prove ownership of the Mystic car and then they could only sell enough to complete the repair. I think he also said he could only sell to a bodyshop. ------------------ Ronnie 69 mach1 351W-4V engineless at the time! 70 Torino GT 351C-4v with a "shaker" Mustangs and More Member #23
