Matte Paint

[exdeath]

Then just a few days ago I see a guy driving a matte black Chrysler 300 with matching rims (20s or higher). Damn, that thing was badass.

Was it even a R/T or SRT8? Or just another lame V6 ghetto cruiser.

I always think Lamborghinis look good in matte black, it fits their cars IMO.

Yup, he must be young.

It needs to be on the right car and it needs to be a high end paint job. Matte is actually really tough to get right. There are matte paints that are very easy to clean.

Yes. Done right. And even then, it's not.....amazing. Seems like a fad finish to me. Kinda like the rusty hoods. lol

I love matte black but I gotta say, but I hear its quite a pain in the ass to keep clean. Wraps on the other hand...

I think matte paint looks good on cars that are very angular. So it works on Lambos and the Buick but I don't like it on M3s.

It looks good on the latest one.

Matte paint is popular and often regretted.

Which are easy to clean?

Drool. If there ever was a car MEANT to be matte/flat black, this is it.

Maybe, but I see spray lines in that car from that angle. Either that or the light is playing tricks. Matte is hard to spray. If you don't have exactly the right reducer for temperature and humidity you will get those lines. You can have problems in any paint but they show up nicely in a matte finish.

I saw one of these and imho it looked absolutely sick!

But it looks like WTF crap on most cars, worst offender I've seen was a Toyota Camry, AND the dude put Lambo doors on it on top of that.

BMW's matte finish on some (or all) of their high-end cars is actually a vinyl wrap. So, if you wanted to try it out, you wouldn't need to repaint.

 

[AMCRambler]

I don't think its a good look. Looks like the car is unfinished.

Matte white also sexy...

 

[CurseTheSky]

There was some kind of graphite-colored Ford GT that looked awesome in matte. Other than that, I'm not a big fan.

whoa. I like it. I want it. Matte white would be easier to paint than matte black I would think.
It looks like a space ship. Cant stop looking at it.

Those are the best kills - especially when their pimply-faced girlfriends are with them.
