The exceptional depth and lustre of premium colours are a result Mazda’s evolutionary Takuminuri painting technology, which gives vehicles a precise high-quality finish that looks like it has been hand-sprayed by a master craftsman. The new paint retains a simple three-layer structure comprising clear, translucent and reflective coats. The translucent layer of the new paint features a high chroma colour pigment. The reflective coat features light-absorbing flakes and aluminium flakes that were made in uniform size and horizontally aligned to reflect light.
