Just curious - would you do Summit White or White Frost Tricoat on a Yukon Denali?

That's a "salt to taste" decision. I like them both, but I went with solid white as I usually do. If bodywork is ever needed, it's just easier to match up. Metallics, pearls, metal flakes, frost, etc. are pretty and all, but are notoriously difficult for paint shops to match.

One thing to consider is that White Frost has one more coat of paint than Summit. So it is a thicker paint job, if that’s a consideration for you.

White Frost Tricoat. Summit White doesn't age well down here in the south, it flakes off in sheets if not taken care of properly.

It seems that’s a problem with white paint in general. I’ve seen white Honda, Ford, GM, etc. cars going down the road with white paint spots missing. I wonder why?
