Ya terabass's car is stick. I have to give him props because he vinyl wrapped his car him self and only paid $150 for the whole roll. I wish I could do that. I just came in from experimenting with painting samples of matte black. My brother was playing with my wheel when it was off and dropped it on its face and scratched the hell out of it. So I decided to experiment on his targa top while he is gone.

Heres how it works. You paint flat black primer. No joke primer. The you paint it with a semi gloss clear. Or you can mix a flat clear with a gloss clear until you get the right amount of sheen you want. I was thinking of doing exactly what you said. Even considering putting pearl in the clear.

You live in westchester. You ever seen bam around in his lambo? Did you race it? 8)
