"Inferno Orange" should be called "Always Red When Photo'd"

This color confuses the heck out of my HTC phone
A buddy of mine owns a detailing business and he went to work on my Sonic Sat. It's amazing what I pro can do for paint. These cell phone pics don't do it justice.

too much exposure. mine looks orange.

It looks orange to me. Your buddy does know how to make it shine! Nice!

I will be glad when winter is over so mine can look that nice again.
Illinois winters and a clean car often aren't used in the same sentence.

Wow. Mine doesn't even look that red...

It must be something I'm not doing correctly. The color of the car really highlights the error. My Red car looks red, and my white car looks white with the same camera.

 

[Maddog2020]

I think your Sonic looks great! The color looks mostly correct.

I've got a bunch of pics of my car in different light that makes it look all different colors, people never believe its the same car

Mine looks orange but it does look red in certain lighting.

your exposure is not right, even with your other 2 cars it looks over exposed. Your car looks super clean though, mine is jealous ;-p I need to ditch my chrome piece that sits above the license plate, I hate it,after looking at the back end of your car.

I bought some paint from color-rite in a rattle can along with the clear they recomend. Quite happy with the results. It matches perfectly and it cost me less than $40. I've got enough left to do the chevy emblems and the door handles.

Ok. I found some settings on the phone that I had apparently altered at some point, and after returning them to normal I believe I have an orange car to show you now.

Still looks red. Haha. I can post pictures of my car and say its victory red, and no one even questions it. It's depressing

I would recommend buying a gallon of it and spraying it on with a gun. Doing it with rattle cans what a giant pain

Yeah I did it before and it turned out decent accept for one area where it ran so I pealed it off. I don't have a spayer or air compressor so I'll probably just do it with the cans again.

Orange!..... and shiny

 

[slitzell]

a whole bunch of ugly orange cars lol.....................jk, looking good guys.

Here in Oklahoma...Orange is for OSU fans, Red is for OU fans lol

What cracks me up here in Oklahoma is how serious people take team colors. I have folks that think my Inferno Orange 1.4 Turbo LTZ Hatch is either in support of OSU, which are orange and black, and then some people think I am in support of OU, who are a dark reddish color.

Based on the sun and how light hits the car along with time of day, the color of my car fluctuates, haha! It's beautiful though!
