S-Type 2.7D 2005 Radiant red paint

[mrmike]

I have been looking for some spray paint to do a small repair on my Car. The Colour is CHB Radiant Red. I have found some kits on Amazon and elsewhere but there is a problem in the descriptions. I have been presented with CHB Radiant Red Perl (Amazon) and CHB Radiant Red Met (Metallic?) else where.  The paintwork apears to be metallic, but German sites appear to have only Perl, Does anyone know what the difference is and or what is Perl?

Thanks in anticipation.

At a guess, I'd say Perl was an abbreviation of Pearl / Pearlescent. Although how you'd get a pearlescent finish from a spray can is another matter!
