It relates to the fact that the paint is being applied to two different types of materials, at different points in time, by different people. He said that even if done in the same place at the same time, the different in material would cause color variation. The color change is probably just more noticeable on a pearl color, especially white, but on most cars, at night, if you take an LED light you can see the difference.
