Organisol was not used. OE looks like a DP90 primer. I use Krylon Semi-flat.
I just used DP90 - looks great

John, that's what I used too on the GTX (Krylon Semi-FLAT) Didn't care if it was done right (coverage area) as long as you couldn't see the Y2 behind the grill like before I blacked it out. Those are factory paint runs on the original Y2 paint under the blackout

That looks good! The black seems to match OE pretty nicely. The thing I like about the Krylon is that it's a spray bomb, you don'thave to mix it. Also, I had to redo my blackout a couple of times before I was happy with it. I was able to wash it off with thinner without damage to the urethane.

Checkout Black Satin.. The satin finish has a slight sheen to it, more attractive then semi-flat... Just my $0.02..

Here is a shot of an untouched original 5000 mile car. Notice the paint and try to duplicate it. Looks like it does have a slight sheen to it.

Krylon also has Black Satin finish paint, I think that's what is being suggested?

Major paint suppliers carry Black Satin including Rustoleum.. The Satin finish is more attractive than semi-gloss or flat, as it has about a 25% gloss added. Also because of its slight sheen it has a more equal distributed pattern when applied. It is available in rattle-cans or liquid cans such as quarts or pints.
Try a can and apply to a random part and compare side-by-side to a part finished in flat or semi-gloss, you will like the better appearance of the Satin.. Guaranteed!!
Just my $0.02..
