Matt finishes

[RefMan]

This looks like a gray/metallic matte finish..

That drumset would look great with Black Nickel HW...

That would like a stealth fighter in black chrome or nickel hardware.

What type of paint was used on that Export kit?

The same paint they use on the F-117 Stealth Fighter.......

That car is hot by the way.

Ferrari F430. I wouldn't be surprised if the matte finish is actually carbon fibre.

it's not. the paint literally swallowed all light and the surface looked coarse but was in fact smooth.

I just found DW's hard satin which probably comes pretty close to what I was looking for...

My old refinished Export EX in Satin Black.....

You could actually have Pearl do a durable finish like this with a base-coat, clear-coat paint. It just depends on how much "flattening agent" they use in the clear.

That's beautiful, pretty much what I was looking for. My idea was to have a black paint that absorbs all light and then put a comt sparkle on it...

Lately I have seen a lot of cars coming with matt finishes and I was wondering if you could have such a matt finish on a masterworks.
Would it just be a satin oil or actually a matt paint?

Does anyone have any pics of kits like that? No finish plies...

Thx,

Yo, that chick standing by the car is hot, I'd do her... five times... in a row... five times, adding up to 25 times.

I don't understand the context of that joke, or was it a complement?

[Drummer87]

Anyone wanna explain that joke?....I guess not.....just read what he quoted over and over again till it sinks in
