Even more new Tayda colors!

Yeah, I think I just had some preconceptions and internal preference for something I have in mind. Beggars can't be choosers 🙂

I used the gold for my Fraudhacker build and it's perfect.

Who knows, maybe it'll grow on me. Maybe if it had slightly less flake the yellow would stand out more? Oh well.
 
Has anyone tried the metallic candy yellowcolor? The site photos make it look like the gold metallic, which I've tried before.

Kinda looks like what happens when you put the brush back into the yellow paint without cleaning it out first.
Yeah, I got a few for some fuzz builds. I think they turned out great. And yeah, they do tend to come across more as gold than "yellow".

I asked Hugo the other day if they planned on bringing back candy copper and candy orange and doesn’t look it’s happening any time soon. He said “they are very difficult and expensive colors, we lost a lot of money on labor and powder.” They’re working on a solution but no ETA. Hopefully the other candy colors stick around. I really liked the candy copper.
 
The gold and yellow ones above are definitely going to be in my next order, I love those.

Here's a real world example of the Viva Magenta:

What happened to matte black? Every listing in that color:
This color out of stock, we recommend ordering MATTE BLACK SAND TEXTURE for nice finish and long term availability

The two matte black boxes I ordered just before that message appeared have been in pending for two weeks now, holding up my $200+ order! Anyone else in the same situation?

I think matte black and matte white were discontinued. Hope not tho
 
I messaged Tayda support about matte white and black for a recent order, and here's what Hugo had to say about a week ago: "it is available in website now but please note that this color (matte black) can take 3 weeks+"

I wanted the matte paint and the timing wasn't urgent for me so I placed an order a few days back and will see how long it takes.
 
The Chromium photographs terribly but it is pretty close to a mirror. The picture does not do it justice. It’s one of the cooler ones i have tried. It shows finger prints pretty badly though.

Sorry if this is old news, but I was browsing tayda today and saw two new-to-me colors: white hammer and silver gray hammer (the latter looks much lighter than the silver hammer).
Definitely new! This is the first I’ve seen about them.
 
Looking at those two new hammer colors right now, and they both look pretty much like a white hammered enclosure, with metallic sheen on the peaks of the texture— silver for the silver, and gold for the “white” one. I actually got a VERY similar look to this on an enclosure I did a while back by painting an enclosure with rustoleum hammered white, and then applying (and then wiping back) antique gold rub-n-buff
 
Oh man, that hammered white looks like it could be awesome. Would love to see a more clear picture to confirm the gold accents in it, as it would be perfect for an upcoming project I'm doing.

Looks to me like Tayda is going towards more durable finishes that are less prone to troubleshooting and defect. More hammered options, and they're really pushing the matte sand texture finishes while discontinuing finishes that are more prone to imperfections and defect (metallic, matte, etc.). Lucky for me, I use hammered and sand texture finishes almost exclusively, but I'm still on day 12 of waiting for my most recent order to get painted. Took about 7 days just to get the drilling done, and paint job is still pending after another 5 days.

In case you all didn't know, the workshop is overloaded 😬
