I also heard you have to do the whole car at once so the flip goes in the same direction throughout the car, so if you then fit like new mirrors or something it will be really hard to get the flip the same as the rest of the car.

is there much more involved for the sprayer when using a flip paint like rage ecstacy for example as opposed to just spraying a solid colour? would a bodyshop that has never dealt with flip paints be able to do a good job? and whats involved is it like a base coat say black then the flip sprayed over in several layers?
