PMM Color

Does anyone think PMM (polished metal metallic) has a blue / slate tint? I cannot decide. Sometimes I think it is true gray or gunmetal, other times I think it looks a little blue-ish. Maybe it has such great shine it is blue clouds reflecting.

What do you see?

I bet there is blue/green pearl tint used in the mix. That's what it looks like to me, blue/green-ish pearl effect.

AM, Anthracite Metallic, has blue pearl tint in the color mix.

PMM is indeed a color on the '09 TL, TSX, Accord and Civic.

I own a PMM, makes it kind of difficult to find parts that are already painted, like my splash guards and spoiler.

Finally saw an '07 CGP the other day. Looks interesting. Has a very blue tint to it.

mglax13, I agree -- CGP has a blue tint... what do you think about your PMM?

I have a PMM and it doesn't look blue at all. It's a silvery grey.

I love the PMM. It was the only "Dark Gray" when I bought my TL, and that's what I was looking for. Coming from a black car, this is great. Doesn't show dirt as quickly. I agree that it's a silver\gray. Don't really see any blue or green tint in it.

To me, it looks alot like Anthracite Metallic, but I havn't seen the two next to each other. If anyone on LI has an AM and wants to get together for a photo shoot, let me know, we can compare differences.
