Flash silver is just the name that vw gave to the silver color that is my
original color.  I did the paint job myself and it turned out really bad.
It has a metal flake to it and I could not get it to come out evenly.  I
have heavy spots and light spots all over. My van is better than when I
bought it but really needs redone by a pro but $$$$.

thanks,

Bart
