Matte Metallic Green Apple vs Matte Metallic Purple: the differences.

The first difference between Matte Metallic Green Apple and Matte Metallic Purple is depth: Matte Metallic Purple reads darker, so it hides body lines that Matte Metallic Green Apple shows. The second is not the finish: both are metallic films, so the sheen is a separate decision from the colour. Low light, curved panels and your own trim decide the rest, and none of that shows up on a swatch. Render both on your car and compare them there.
