Candy apple is achieved by applying a bright silver metallic groundcoat, followed by a top coat of semi translucent basecoat, then lacquered. I don't know of any specific codes, it can be bought from House of Kolor, or fleabay, among others.

Hi Pete

Can't seem to get a sample off the house of kolor site though. I have a candy apple red code for a chrysler so gonna do quite a big spray out to see what it's like.

Cheers Pete
