Love it. I for one, really like your boat colors RC, they’re bold, as it should be on one of these boats. Subdued colors are for the meek. Too bad they don’t offer that yellow anymore. It would look good with black also, or green. Actually, it’s a very versatile accent color come to think about it.

Another point with the MF paint is that small scuffs don’t show up as bad as with standard colors. I really like the MF on our boat. The red really pops in the sun.

Just a comment on metal flakes.
The black based flakes are much lower in flake density than the color based flakes.
If you over saturated a black base flake, it wouldn’t be black.
Ultra black is the mildest flake with mostly silver flake with a little copper and I can find some random blue and red flake if I search for it.
Midnight blue is a black base with medium flake with Brittany and ultra blue flake.
Black cherry is a black base with medium red flake.
The rest of the metal flakes are high and heavy density flakes.

Metal flake is not hard to repair. At least not any harder than a solid color repair. All they are doing is mixing up a clear gel coat and then they pour in the dry flake until there is enough in there to make it a solid color. The flakey, shinny, almost 3D appearance actually helps to hide imperfections, I think.
I had a repair done that went through solid black into my MF blue. The blue came out perfect, but I could tell the black area had a repair done to it.
I purchased my flake here:

It requires VERY little so the small bottle will cover a very large area. I wasn't sure on the flake size so i ordered the .004 and .008. I believe I used the .004 for a perfect match. I got the wrong blue the first time and TCP was very good to return it and get me the right stuff. Think I paid $16 for it and the dealer wanted WAY over $100 for it.
So this just went up on YouTube. Not much there but maybe everything will be released soon!
