Where can I get this stuff?

[Intrepid]

I'm looking to get some of the paint that Alienware uses on thier laptops. The stuff that reflects diferent colors when you look at it at diferent angles. I think it's called metalic somethingorother. Where spacificly can I purchase or order this stuff? Thanx.

u might want to try contacting a shop in town that does custom body paint jobs because what they use is auto paint... unless you have a compressor and an atomizer it probably wont turn out well... ive heard this paint is expensive though

you could get the Krlon or whatever they have like 4 choices of color combinations.....

unless you coat the krylon with a finish like acrylic spray then it will be very susceptible to scratching... i used some black on the front of my case and i had to reapply every so often even though i had about 6 coats on there...

Here's the krylon stuff.http://www.krylon.com/product/mystique.asp

From what that page says, I don't think that you have to spray it with anything after. But I'm an idiot, so you might.

yeah that pack includes a clear top coat as the 3rd step.. serves the same function as the acrylic

Good luck, if I remember correctly that paint IS VERY EXPENSIVE. Like $4500 for a 5 gallon can or something outragous like that.
