Flat Black Paint

[xamel1975]

I've seen a few cars with this type of paint. I'm also interested with this color, gives kinda "bad boy" look. How much for whole body (Satria) inside out n what's the paint code? Does anybody here knows?

It should be cheaper than any 2K paint as you need not spray the additional laquer. I personally have not done it before but you can ask around to quote you... That is the best i guess :)

kinda dun like it,car looks very poor condition with that paint.but kinda like the flat silver,saw it somewhere in the web on a subaru impreza

bad boy look? seriously your car will look like junk with unfinished paint IMO. matte finish looks like undercoat. not nice at all..

LOL!!

Americans call it Ratrod Primer look.

Drifter cars in Japan are matte black because after accident, the have no money to spray their car. So after puttin new body parts, they just leave the part unpainted because they dont know when that part will be bang again :lol:

flat black paint advantage is easy to DIY spray. shine is nice after newly done but it fades very fast.

i am thinking..is it possible that this kind of paint undetectable by speed trap radar? if it does, then by end of the week, i am gonna change my car colour.

hahahhahahahahhaha

p/s oh yeah, flat black can be used on very hot metal surface like exhaust pipe.nice!

I think zan meant satin finish. Semi-gloss look

Better not do, if rims ok la, but not the whole car.

Well, different people got different perspective... matte paint are kinda easier to maintain comparatively to lacquered. Touch up can use normal RM5 spray cans hahaha

But i must say it will look fierce only if you spray it on a modded car and not stockies.

hey flat black is the new "in". just look at most of the latest superbikes (MV Brutale, Ducati monster dark, Yamaha R1 and R6).
