Yes, go to www.innate.com. The specific page is:</cr>

There are two different sets of chips. One is a fan deck for the Kameleon Kolors, for $8.95, and the other is for everything else, at $44.95. I don't know if either set has the new Kameleon Pearl Flake, however. Nice thing about innate.com is that they accept PayPal, and sell the HoK stuff in small quantities if you wish.</cr>

Maverick , i am going to guess your talking about viewing them on line, well the chips do them no justice what so ever but if you go to www.welleauto.com they have the chips there but for a better view you are better off getting your self a chip book , Like Scott G. said theyre advalable on line or just about any paint supply store carring the line can get a book for you, while at it get your self a tech book if you already dont have one.

Thanks, guys. I'm pretty new at this, so I'm trying to exercise all options (on a budget), and your input is most assuredly appreciated.

Now, next question...need an opinion here: I'm trying to achieve an almost black 'black cherry' where the red 'tint' is barely visible in bright light. I'll be doing blue and purple 'ghost flames' on this using a reduced clear 'carrier' of the same brand in my airbrush to ensure compatibility (I already have the pearl powders). I'm thinking about a 'glaze coat' (for lack of a better term) of HOK's Kosmic Kolor Kandy, in the deepest red I can get, over the HOK black pearl base. You guys think this'll give the effect I'm looking for? Any suggestions/comments/criticisms (which are well accepted at this point..I have planning time)?

Whoops, forgot to mention...it's for a motorcycle, so huge quantities aren't an issue.

Hmmm. Rex, that's a good question. All I know is that it's marketed on the site as 'black pearl base' right here:

And I remember that particular one...almost a persimmon in color...no, that's not what I'm looking for. Maybe the black cherry idea ain't so hot...but there's got to be some way to get the effect I'm looking for.

Just a suggestion on the dark cherry look.
Make your own black metallic for a base. Take about pint of black, then add some BC-01 silver (not much at all), possibly 1-2 ounces to 16 ounces of black, Then coat the complete part with like the UK brandywine candy (or any candy for that matter. Spray about 4 coats on it, then clear.
Do a test panel before the real deal.

Thanks, Scott. That MAY work, and since we're talkin' motorcycle, it won't break my piggybank to try a few different candies over that until I find something I like. NOW I know why I like this list. ::grin::
