PrimeRose Paint color

Hey guys. I searched the forum and couldn't find any information on Why Primerose is such a complicated color? I heard people saying its one of the hardest to repair because of its almost perleascant look.

Is it because the had two coats of slightly different paint?

And is it possible to get a spraycan of that paint? I tried getting some at Carquest paint mixing store for cars, they work with the codes and mix the real paint, and they couldn't make it.

And would it be more costly to repaint the car PrimeRose completly than lets say, silver.

There's metal flake, but it's not pearlescent. It's still just one color

i'm not sure about its composition, but its an annoying colour to restore. i spray painted my bumper 2 years ago, it didnt match one bit, even after polishing, washing and getting the paint using the VIN. after my accident in august, my rear quater was resprayed by an acura certified body shop and it looked like shit, the matching was off. nice colour to have, but dont fuck it up

I will never own another white car, even though it looked so sexy on my lip kitted trans am, it's just too hard to clean. I thought black was bad till I went to white, and back to black I went lol
