Change colour - eliassons - 01-01-2019

Okay, I have a question.
I have a Picture of a veichle, that I want to change colour of. right now it´s blue, but I want it to "pig-pink". I know how to change the colour, either I do it by making a transparent layer and paint in that(like this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfnRntPBS8c ), or I use colour rotation. The problem is, that I can´t paint it with "Pig-pink". If i select that colour it just looks like ordinary pink(see the photo i attatched). I want to paint with the colour i selected. Can someone please help me with how to do?

I do not think there is any easy way. Packing in for the night now so a quick color exchange Colors -> Map -> Color exchange on a duplicate layer then a layer mask for background and windows...etc.

One problem is the specularity - the shininess It might be better to edit the blue first to try and reduce those very reflective areas.

Hopefully someone will come up with a better procedure. Edit: Save you hunting for the original https://i.imgur.com/FOt5MUu.jpg

You could also try Colors > Map > Rotate Colors
(Same comments a Rich about duplicate layer, layer mask, etc)
