[QUOTE="mizhan, post: 395596, member: 7942"] colour is the same stuff.. just the clearcoat contains ceramic molecules. so matching is not an issue. ceramic based clearcoat is basically tougher than high-solid laquer. only reason to choose is the higher resistance towards scratches, chips, swirls & discolouration. this is not to say it can't be scratched at all, just tougher. hence you get a longer lasting finish. the downside is the polishing.. it's toughness makes it difficult to smoothen. in fact, a car recently painted with high-solid will appear more shiny as it is easier to rub down & polish. it is over the years that ceramic clearcoat will appear more fresh compared to conventional laquer.
