Is the white color of the Boyue pearl white?

The white color of the Geely Boyue belongs to Han Yu White. Classification of white colors: The white colors of cars are mainly divided into pearl white, polar white, and candy white. In fact, due to the different types of pigments used to create the color and the different proportions of ingredients, the degree of whiteness and the luster reflected to the human eye also vary. Professionals engaged in dyes or pigments can discern subtle differences with the naked eye. Composition of different white colors: Pearl white generally contains fluorescent brightener components, with a surface that reflects a pearl-like luster, emitting a blue or flesh-red light; candy white is a matte finish, a milky white with a faint yellow light, while polar white is a snow-white with a blue light, with a higher reflectivity than both pearl white and candy white.
When I bought the Borui, I specifically asked the salesperson about the white paint. Geely officially calls it 'Crystal White,' but when you see the car in person, it's quite noticeable – the paint has fine glitter particles that give off a subtle pearl-like sheen under sunlight, completely different from ordinary solid white paint. This kind of pearlescent white is quite trendy now, even Japanese car brands love using it. But I should warn you – if you ever need touch-ups, pearl white is harder to color-match and prone to visible discrepancies, so it's best handled at an authorized 4S shop. Also, this paint finish is relatively dirt-resistant; after snow in northern areas, mud splashes on the body aren't as noticeable, making daily maintenance genuinely more hassle-free.
