The same goes for all non-metallics


Is flame red a colour that would have been used on a '97 mk3 Astra, quite
a bright red? If it is I'd advise against getting anything that colour. My
Astra attracts chips and scratch's very easily and with a white undercoat
they are very prominent. The paint seems very thin and comes off very
easily.

I'd swear it will chip if you look at it the wrong way!
