Default White ghost flames...

I am going to be painting a Mazda Speed 6 for carpet racing this winter. Looking to do a ghost flame in white. So my question is, do I use pearl white for the flames and regular white for the main body? Any help/tips are appreciated.

yep, you would mask off where you want the flames and then spray the pearl white where the flames will be. Then you can back it all with white. Depending on how ghost you want the flames to be depends on how much pearl you spray.

White pearl on white should look killer but it might be a little too ghost, you might want to highlight a very tiny itty bit hint of silver chrome on the edge just to pull the flames out ever so softly.

What color will be your cover over the "ghost" flames?
