Sesman:
Pretty obvious, but RS paints? And don’t forget the black?

R.S. Bikepaints do do the Jade(Jet  :D) Green but it's a candy 3-part system not metallic. (bluey metallic base-coat and a weird when you see it in the container browny looking candy coat)

Sesman:
That’s interesting. I believe the 500 Jade Green I have must have been done with that as there is, in a certain light, a brownish tinge to the green.

Unfortunately you cant see it in this photo, but as you say it definitely is there.

No PCR results as yet but my mate has just been tested +. Misery…..

Sesman:
I lied, you can just make it out.

It's quite a cool effect in paint isn't it.

 A bit like the optical coating on camera lenses that don't impeed colour when you look through them, but looking obliquely across the surface then the coating colour becomes more prominent.

Clever in that if gives a modelling and 3rd dimensional effect on tanks etc with the curves accentuated in different lighting and viewing angle.
