Flat Black? Opinions please.

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

werd... i'd like to know too..

How is the texture of your paint though? Is it rough, or does it feel smooth like a regular paint job?
