"Candy" paints are transparent and require a (usually) metallic base coat to achieve the desired colour.
Like Phil said candy paints are transparent so you you need the correct base coat. I'm not a car builder but I suggest you move this over go the painting forum where you will get better response.
Too many models to build, not enough time in a lifetime!!
black mutes the light in red, grey would b better or even orange and then cherry red again
A base coat of silver or gloss aluminum is the normal undercoat for candy finishes, though some folks use gold for a slightly different effect.
