Candy paint question

[Monty]

Before I go and spend a bunch of money on hobby paints, has anyone had good results spraying a candy color over pearl white?

The idea I'm considering is Tamiya candy blue stripes over a Testors White Lightning pearl white body, but I don't know if the pearl white will provide the kind of base (like silver or gold) that would keep the blue from appearing washed out.

I'm asking because these spray cans are around $7.00 apiece here, and I don't want to waste money on something that won't work.

If you've done this and have pics, I'd love to see them.

I have not done blue but have done tangerine and lavender over pearl white with very good results. Paint used was HOK from Black Gold.

SnowWhite Pearl is my favorite base for Candies.

Here's one of a box full of HOK 50th Anniversary Customs that went out to the execs at House Of Kolor,

HOK Candy Oriental Blue over HOK SnowWhite Pearl

HOK Candy Pink over HOK SnowWhite Pearl,

A thinned down HOK Oriental Blue over HOK SnowWhite Pearl,

A Convention Charity plaque of Batmobiles all donme in HOK Candies over HOK SnowWhite Pearl,

HOK Candy Purple over HOK SnowWhite Pearl,

HOK Candy Purple over HOK SnowWhite Pearl,

HOK BrandyWine Candy with Red Russet Pearl over HOK snowWhite Pearl,

HOK Candy Pagan Gold with Aztec Gold Pedarl over HOK SnowWhite Pearl,
