Paint Scheme

Anodized Titanium

The look of rainbow anodized titanium. Plan is to achieve this by running a silver to gold base coat fade over primer, then House Of Kolor Kandy in Root Beer to Tangerine to Magenta to Cobalt in faded sections. This is my Mount Everest of painting.

Root Beer Kandy (KK-07) (House of Kolor)
Tangerine Kandy (KK-08) (House of Kolor)
Magenta Kandy (KK-16) (House of Kolor)
Cobalt Blue Kandy (KK-05) (House of Kolor)
Sterling Silver (Sherwin-Williams)
Cosmic Gold Metallic (Sherwin-Williams)
