What I meant was there's a difference between Titanium Gray Metallic and Titanium Grey Metallic II.

I guess code it's code 892 for Titanium Gray 1 Metallic.

 

No, the non factory processed paints are not all the same, unless they ARE an approved paint supplier and NOT all shops and BMW dealer have access to an approved repaired facility. Sure any dealer can tell you they are approved. When the car is repaired at the factory they don?t run out to the local NAPA and buy a qt of paint for the repair. They use an approved paint from an approved source. You can go buy a mixed can of R&M and another mixed at NAPA, and they won't match, therefore blending may or may not be needed.

You could also have an inexperienced person and they have to blend because of the needed process /technique to apply the paint and they may or may not be familiar with it. However, the paint should match IF they are from an approved supplier and mixed and applied correctly. Of course correctly applied metallic or non met (process). Not just air pressure effects this, but also distance, speed, temperature humidity, there are a lot of factors. Like I said in my post, "This procedure masks/hides the deficient paint and application process and makes it ?less? noticeable. Trust me, I have more experience with BMW paint than you could ever imagine! lol.

 

Yes i believe it was you who once asked me for advice. so ok bro. believe and do what you want and i will do the same on my part.

 

Omg dude take a F'N breath! You need to come down to earth and not take it so personal when someone doesnt agree with you. I would tell you exactly about the paint situation but at this point it's irrelevant. You do offer good advice and seem to be very knowledgible but you just have to realize you may not always be correct...
