theres matt black and then theres satin black, my old bug was rat look and in some light it had a kinda shine, but from most angles its dull, matt black is the mega dull all the time look......

to most they look the same but there is a slight difference!!

just wet flat your car, mask out the windows and anything else you dont want black and spray it!! some cars look good, some look shat though....
