Is the Regal painted with metallic paint?

[MacElisa]

Regal is painted with metallic paint. Concept of metallic paint: Metallic paint, also known as metallic flake paint, typically contains aluminum or copper powder mixed into the paint base. When light hits these metallic particles on the car surface, it reflects through the clear coat, creating a sparkling metallic appearance. In the painting process, metallic paint requires a two-stage application - the metallic base coat must be covered with a clear coat to achieve the desired gloss and hardness. Classification and structure of automotive paint: Automotive paint consists of three layers: primer, intermediate coat, and topcoat. The topcoat comes in two types: solid color paint (commonly called plain paint) and metallic flake paint (commonly called metallic paint), each accounting for about half of the market. In recent years, metallic paint series have developed rapidly, with colors evolving towards higher transparency, depth perception, and richer hues.
