Not perfection, but she`ll do for a DD.

Nice, that`s a very elegant tone of green with that pearl in it.

It is called Imperial Jade Green Mica, the true color of the paint comes to life in the sun, otherwise it`s pretty muted.
Migue- Thank you, she`s about as hard to keep clean as a black car.

Looks great! Just ordered some fk1000p and plan on using it on my DD very soon. Have never used it before and can`t wait to try it.

You will not be let down, FK1000P is really a fantastic product and you will get so much usage out of that tin, for the price it is really hard to beat its performance.

I`ve heard enough people raving about it over the years. Figured it was time.

Even moreso than with most people who fall for FK1000P in that his Jade Green, like the Granite Metallic on my old Yukon XLD, is a paint that not everyone would like FK1000P on (looks-wise).
TheMeanGreen- Speaking of that, did you like how it looks right off the bat, or did it have to grow on you for a while?

I loved the look it initially gave, and still do. Out of the sunlight, the Pearl is very mute, almost to the point that the car looks somewhat black. In the light though, that`s when the magic happens. It`s the equivalent of a really big shark, in a very dark ocean, crossing infront of a well lit submersible camera.

TheMeanGreen- Ah, I know exactly what you mean! It`s a similar effect on the Blue Pearl Audi. I think I like FK1000P more on those kinds of colors when there`s a bit of pearl in the mix...the GMC didn`t have that (just a regular metallic) and I think that was the tiny diff that I thought was missing.
