after trying the roller method with gloss black and driving myself nuts trying to get rid of the little swirly marks, I sanded it all off and sprayed it flat black and I'm really glad I did. I love the look of the flat and it seems like wherever I take my car now, people stop and ask me about it and comment on the cool paint job, so I think the public is ready for flat paints.




Dude! First Quentin Tarantino steals my flat black paint idea for the Death Proof Charger, and now YOU TOO!

I have a '68 that I was planning on doing in flat/matt/satin black. Thanks for the pic.

I'll be practicing rolling the hood of my lawnmower next weekend to see how the Rustolem turns out. I was going to try both semi-gloss and flat to see which looks better.

I'm wondering if I can get away with no sanding between coats. I would think that a flat or semi-gloss wouldn't need any surface roughing for adhesion from one coat to the next.
