What is the difference between pearl white paint and ordinary white paint?

[Lance]

Pearl white paint and ordinary white paint have the following differences: Material: Pearl paint is a type of metallic paint. Ordinary white is a solid color paint without metallic luster. From the perspective of long-term usage, white car paint tends to turn yellow over time. At the same time, pearl white is prone to color differences during later touch-ups due to the characteristics of the paint. Cost: Pearl paint has high formulation costs, mainly reflected in labor time, requiring multiple processes from repair, filling, spraying to polishing. Moreover, pearl paint is difficult to spray, with high requirements for paint thickness control and uniformity. Achieving a color-free difference after repair demands high technical skills. On the other hand, the formulation process for white car paint is not as complex, making it less costly than pearl white. White car paint does not contain any reflective or brightening additives, relying solely on the outer clear coat to enhance brightness, making this white more worry-free.
