Wow.here's a smoothed black paint job like i was talking about
EDIT: reflections are way deeper with smoothed clear coat
the problem people make is they have no clue how to take care of a black car..it applies to all colors but black makes every scratch/ding/scrape/scuff/blemish stick out way more than other colors

Yup. P/o of my car probably washed it with brillo it was that bad. I try to keep it as clean as possible weather permitting but the paints old and needs refreshing lol.. That smoothes black paint looks amazing man, do all shops do that if you ask or is it custom?
most shops will do it..it'll be a more expensive bill obviously

Looks good, but damn who ever owns that needs to invest in a bottle of wax and a buffing wheel lol
i've seen guys drop crazy $$ on black paint jobs and they look great around 8pm, lol. noon sun and swirls everywhere. cut and buff skills just arent up to par in some cases with black! the reason i stayed away from repainting mine black!
i can run though a good detail process/list with you down in SC if you'd like, [MENTION=17070]Tony[/MENTION]

There are a number of metallic blacks that are nice. Go to your local auto parts store and check out their black section to get some ideas.
