Agreed that this looks way nicer than the usual Paisley pink on the MIJ models.
Anyway, Rustoleum used to do that metallic pink in spray cans - I had some for bursting the underside of a clear pickguard and it is a dead on match for Allparts Paisley bodies. However, last time I looked in Wilko they didn't have it, and I think it may have been discontinued - perhaps a retailer still has some somewhere?

If I ever did a Paisley Tele I might think to update it with a modern hot pink Candy for a bit more bling.
Tasteful, I'm sure you agree.
That's literally no help, is it? Sorry.

I'm speculating, but Fender may spray theirs like a candy colour - perhaps a metallic silver base coat, transparent pink tinted lacquer, then clear lacquer. Tinted/ aged (amber) clear coats would also subtly affect the final colour (as they would over a metallic pink paint). I recently saw a fantastic strong candy Raspberry colour which was sprayed over an ice blue metallic base coat which looked fantastic, but a couple of shades darker than what you've suggested you like.
