Is this really an orange color? I seem to get two totally different colors when I google it. I am wanting an Orange color (Go Vols). I am going to order some spray cans to try some things out but wanted to make sure that “chrome yellow” really was an orange color.

My 64 Sprint was painted chrome yellow. I always thought it was sort of an orangey yellow. Sort of in between, but a little more to the yellow side. Depending on the light you'd see more of one than the other.

Everyone thinks I painted my truck for the Vols. It is Calypso Corral. All the Vols fans around me love it!
It actually more orange than it looks in the picture. It really Pops!

I believe this Bronco is chrome yellow. Looks more yellow than orange to me. Bronco used to belong to owner of Adam's Polishes. Wish I had bought it.

Check my garage. Original paint chrome yellow. It is somewhat orange. I prefer the prairie and pinto yellow color. But it is still nice,
