paint differences

[Blackout]

can anyone tell me the difference in the finish between Tamiya's TS-40 Metallic Black, and TS-14 Black. I want the car to be nice and shiny, but Im really curious as to what the metallic black looks like.

Metallic black is just that, metallic black, TS-14 is gloss black, both are gloss colors and both will be shiny, if you want it to be shinier, apply a clear coat too.

You can see my TS-40 Metallic Black Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII RS here.
Metallic paints have tiny silver particles in it.

thanks for the help. I think that Im going to stick with the regular black. The metallic look isn't really what Im going for with this car.
