You need to PM slow904door, his car was painted flat black a few months ago, and it looks amazing. I definately say go for it.

agreed

i personnaly think flat black looks better than the conventional gray primer anyways

ya go for the flat black i dont care my cars getting painted but my words of advice wait untill after winter you cuz you cant wash flat black and if you want to be diffrent go for a flat white looks so damn good also use krylon and it will be about 15 cans for a cb7 wallmart is the cheapest 2.50 a can

I was thinking of doing that this up coming summer since my car needs some body work and a repaint.

man, that is so seks

but im curious...how does one maintain/clean a flat black paint job? I heard that flat black paint jobs can be done with a light clear coat to protect things...but yeah I'm still wondering...I mean is the surface texture the same as a regular paintjob? I dont suppose flat black paint jobs can really stand up well to the elements, such as rocks and debris, but I could be wrong
