The All-New Lexus RC Set to Launch 'In the Red'
- Upcoming RC Coupe Available in Striking New Red Paint Color
- The Head-Turning Hue is Achieved Using a Combination of a Silver and Red Base
- RC Coupe Set to Launch in 2014
The luminous red paint is achieved through a meticulous paint process using four base coats of paint which are then baked twice. Layers of colored and clear coating are used to control some of the color’s reflections and establish a balance between the brightness and depth – two elements that traditionally work against each other.
For the red exterior, the factory starts with a base coat of silver and then applies a clear coat.
Then, the clear coat is covered by a translucent red coat, which is then topped with another clear coat.
The four coats of paint are baked twice to set the color.
The all-new RC Coupe was unveiled at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show and will be on display at the Lexus space at the 2014 North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
