HOK Tangelo Pearl

I have heard many people say this color is good looking. Does anyone have any pics of vehicles painted this color? Thanks.

Re: HOK Tangelo Pearl

Thats the color I'm going with on mine, already have the paint just need to do the bodywork on my new (well, new to me) 68 front clip. If you like Orange, I do not think there is a nicer looking Orange than this.

Re: HOK Tangelo Pearl

I was actually planning on going with tangelo pearl on my truck until I saw it in real life, Tangelo pearl is definately a beutiful color but it was a wee bit to yellow for me so thats when I picked the color I actually used, Good luck with the decision.

Re: HOK Tangelo Pearl

55 Chevy what color did you end up using? I was wondering if Tangelo looked like the color in your avatar or if it was lighter with more yellow as you say. Pics can alter the true look of the color by quite a bit, and I am after a meduim metallic orange, not a lighter shade prefereably. Thanks for the help guys.

Re: HOK Tangelo Pearl

It's not a car but this will give you another idea of what HOK Tangelo Peral looks like. This was shot over a white base. If it's shot over a gold base it becomes very yellow...

Re: HOK Tangelo Pearl

What I like best about Tangelo is that it looks orange and where the sun or light hits it it looks yellow because of the pearl in it.
