Difference between Liquid Platinum and Brilliant Silver?

Just searched with no results.

Is LP lighter than BS or what?

Thanks,
Anthony

LP is suppose to be brighter but I have not had a chance to park next to a BS coupe yet so I don't know for sure how much brighter it really is.

That does not make any sense...why rename it IF it's the same color? There has got to be some difference even if it's very little.

No, Garnet Fire is NOTHING like laser red. They are not the same color, stop posting wrong information. Brilliant Silver and Liquid Platinum are two different colors. The only way to tell the differences is to see both colors in person.

IMO brilliant silver has a goldish tint, and LP is very very bright.

Optional
Liquid Platinum has a better resale value due to it's paint containing high concentrations of platinum grade metals.




Awww man I'm so full of $hit!
