Matallic colored changing car?

I was driving home from work today and saw a matallic purple car, as i drove up to it, the color changed to a matallic orang, matallic blue, matallic green and other matallic colors, I was wondering what is this paint job called and how much would it cost to do it.Matallic colored changing car?
Actually that car probably had a pearl put on the normal paint job which made it look like it was changing colours as you drove by. Metallic paint only means that there is metal flakes in the paint and it just makes it ';shimmer'; or ';sparkle'; in the sunlight. A pearl paint job can cost you $2000-$3000 depending on how much the colour on the car differs from the colour you want to change it too because then the doors and hood will have to be removed if it is an extreme colour change. If you want a mettalic paint job than it will only run you $1000-$1500.Matallic colored changing car?
it is a polychromatic paint.



it is basically a three stage, the first is the colour coat, the second is the poly chromatic which is composed of tiny pieces of metallic maylar and the third is a clear coat.



the mylar is in suspionion in the paint. when it is applied, the mylar will settle out in, in hopefully a consistant pattern.



the colour change is due to the index of refraction differences in the metallic coating.



the paint is rather expensive because of the make-up and the fact that it has three coats.



other than that it shouldn't cost more than 2000-3000 depending on size and body work required.



google house of colour (color) for samples.
thats very expensive paint and it's called camelion paint, I really don't know how much to paint a whole car with it, you would have to contact an autobody shop.
