Go to Auto Body Express on Florida Ave., they will sell you the black base coat and a flat clear.That is the right way to do it.

Rustoleum Satin Black has a slight sheen to it, but I have never
attempted to do a whole car with it...........and it costs more than
$1.99/can!

The secret to any good paint job is the preparation underneath it.-Bob

The satin black looks good on the Porsche and the top car.
The flat black doesn't appeal to me personally.

These days, people "dip" their cars. Any thoughts on satin black versus dip black?
