Champane Gold paint?

Has anyone ever mixed this color or does anyone know where I can get? I know tamiya has a gold but its too bright.

Gunze makes a spray can, Gunze Spray 168 Champagne Gold Mica. Not sure if that's close to what you're looking for. It's a very transparent color.

Re: Champane Gold paint?

The order in which you mix paint should not affect the final color.

Re: Champane Gold paint?

it does, becuase a gold base wont work to get the affect of champane i tried, then figured a silver base with gold, it works better, and gives the affect better

How about Model Master champagne gold metallic. Never tried it myself but maybe it's worth a try.

Re: Champane Gold paint?

What effct do you mean? Is this champagne color supposed to be metallic, pearlescent, or both?

I always thought of champagne (the car color) as simply metallic, but I only owned a champagne-colored car for four years; what do I know?

I used a Duplicolor Champagne spray can on my WRX wagon. You'll see it if you search.

I used the Model master Champagne Metallic on my Porsche. I used Plasti-kote white primer. I cannot recall if this picture has the pearl clear on it or not.

It's a nice color and the color I remember most on Porsche back in the 80's.

I think that a good champagne color is x-32 or x-31 (dont remember) titanium gold from tamiya, is as all you say a mix of silver ang gold, about 2 gold and 1 silver, there is also titanium silver, 2 silver and 1 gold, more or less, do you remember the old kits that always say x-11:1 x-12:2 or so, no they have x-32 and x-31 to avoid those mixes.

Re: Champane Gold paint?

If I am not mistaken some shades of Champagne have just a touch of pinkish color to them, I once had a Champagne edition Rabbitt ( thats the old US version Golf )

Re: Champane Gold paint?

I have two cans of the model master paint. Never used. Going it do a two tone car put found out the stripes were gold.
