How Much Is A Black Matte Respray?

[Hanaldo]

I basically want something that looks like this kind of black:

The wrap black matte looks way too flat to me, or am I actually thinking of flat black?

I always thought it was glossy or matte, never this third 'flat'. To be honest the hood on that looks matte but the rest doesn't, even so I don't want something super reflective like most cars I see. Just not my personal taste. A little reflection is good, but only if it's a little, like in that picture.

That looks like satin black to me.

There are actually a few different levels of paint with regards to reflection, it goes flat>matte>satin>semi-gloss>full-gloss.

That clears up my ignorance now :3- thank you.

So should I get a wrap in satin then since they are a lot cheaper than a full body respray?

At least it's more easy to reverse the process should you...

* get tired of it

* wish to sell it

* damage a section and need to match it

* want to drive on a moonless night with your lights off

I would speak to someone that can tell you what is involved in maintaining it (RusH, for example). Matte finished aren't easy to look after, if you don't put a lot of work into it then you're going to end up with a very average looking car.

vinyl wrap is the cheapest way to change the colour of your car. To paint the good quality matt black, it will cost double price than wrap your car in matt black.
