Do Candy colors hold up?
I am getting ready to paint my bike, I was thinking of a couple different colors to go with some of which are candy colors. I had a guty tell me the other day NOT to paint my bike a candy color because the UV rays will fade it. I am not sure if this is BS or not. I have never used candy colors before so let me know.

Many colours fade in daylight, I'm not sure any of them are truly fade free. Stop talking to 'guys' and call a professional paint supplier! My bike, bought new in 1990, is Hi Fi Candy Metallic and how would I know if it has faded? Possibly it has, but it still looks fine 20-odd years later!
