I have a ASM and my friend has a SSM and the only difference we can tell is that his looks a shade darker and mine seems to show the metallic better.

I paint for a living and there is not much difference between these two colors. In fact, unless you really look hard there is not much of a difference. Just a different size flake in the metallic to put it short for you.

LOL @ my post in that linked thread.

I'll post it again in this thread...



As you can see, SSM has more of a "blueish" hue to it, whereas ASM is more "silver".

From what I remember, SSM is mostly fine metallic tint, ASM is mostly medium and/or coarse metallic tint. Under proper lighting, and high gloss finish, you'll clearly see the difference up close.

SSM is a very commonly used Honda silver.
