Don't even TRY to use ColorRong on the Kawi candy reds. A couple of forum members have used their blue from rattle cans and it's worked out fine.... but their clearcoat is not that good.

What I'd suggest for someone not able to spray their own (for colors other than candy reds), use the ColorRite rattle cans for the color coats, then take it to an auto paint shop and ask them to shoot the clear after the color cures for a couple of weeks. That'll give you something heavy enough to buff out the orange peel.

ColorRite is acrylic enamel.
would be a bad idea to leave it for a couple of weeks before clear coating ,,too much time for contaminates to build up on the paint ,,get it clearcoated asap ,,,im pretty sure most body shops would be able to match the colour for you
