Is there such a thing as...

a transparent or opaque weather-resistant glossy-finish paint?

Just wondering if any of you guys ever seen, heard or used one before.

Let me rephrase, a transparent or opaque weather-resistant glossy-finish paint that's not clear (e.g. smoked maybe)

Offhand, I would say yes, only because I know they put pearl in some clears for a slight color change effect at certain angles. Best to talk to a paint shop about what you want done.

I've seen pearl flames on hotrods. Daytime you can't see anything. but at night under the street lights, you can see it. etc..
