I'd do the candy blue over a silver base...

Blue candy over yellow will be green for sure.

Yello + Blue = Green ... but is that true in powder coating?

If it covers well, there may not be much of the yellow influence - I don't know, but I'm curious ... does anyone have the "answer" on how powder coating works in this way?

You would have yellow with tiny blue spots...
Powder doesn't mix like paint at all...
I've already talked to my powdercoater about this...

The "candy" blue is semi translucent so the silver gives it the brightness and the candy look. Laying this over yellow will probably give you a green color but it depends on the yellow. I would go for the absolute brightest yellow avail. to really shine through the blue. Good luck
