I think silver was started in '88. I may be wrong tho.

I like Dupli-color acrylic lacquer 1679 silver metallic with a gloss clearcoat over it and a good primer under all of them. Works and looks great with a good lifespan.

check out my post, I went to a powder coater and tried to match the swing arm. When I got the basket case of a bike it had Green paint on the frame, but it flaked off quick, making me think that someone else painted it. Grey was under it and it was tough. So I went grey.
