An automotive finish. Consists of a base coat (usually metallic, with small to large metallic flakes), followed by the 'candy', which is followed by a clear coat.
The candy is a translucent color coat, which is either a specialty candy paint or a clear-coat paint tinted with dye.
The final color and darkness of the finish depends on the color and darkness of the basecoat, the amount of tint in the candy coat, and the number of candy coats applied.
Candy paint requires a lot of sanding and is very labor intensive. It also requires a skilled painter to get a consistent color, as any variation in the thickness of the candy paint will appear as streaks or dark/light patches in the final finish. Due to this, candy paint is usually very expensive.

It supports many of the popular graphic types, including CompuServe (GIF), JFIF Compliant (JPEG), Macintosh PICT (PICT), Windows Bitmap (BMP), Photoshop (PSD), and Portable Network Graphics (PNG, my favourite) as well as less familiar file types. You can also use Paint Shop Pro to convert Images from one format to another. It is much facile than Adobe Photoshop, in my opinion. Often known as PSP.
