Dan507 Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I have some friends. Who have sprayed there push bikes matte black and they never lacquered it. Likeyou said it ruins the matte effect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LukeSR Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Surely you don't lacquer the finish because then you will loose the matte effect? I don't know Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wssoR Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 ye that was my origional thought as said, but then ill be worried about it stone chipping easily Quote Link to post Share on other sites

5T4R7ET N/A Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 if you lacquer the parts they will go shiny.i don't know if they do a matte lacquer, be good if they did. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
durmz Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 If it stone chips, just bang on some more spray, but of the beauty of matte black lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
james@cjperformance Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 as said above they will go shiney, just keep a couple of tins of matt black paint in your boot for touch ups.laquer is a pain in the arse when it chips so matt is the way forward Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nanglebadger Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 eeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh wrong.wrongwrongwrongWRONGyou're all wrong folks.and you know how i know???? Alan-e's matte black GT, the "Asbo GT" as its known, is obviously matte black...and how did he achieve said matte look?? why, simples of course! underneath it is the exact same black paint as all shiny black quadlights, however the LACQUER he has used is a matte effect lacquer, thereby giving the matte effect. not often i answer a question in the tech section hehehe!Phil.

Idrees Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 Phil us on the all. Matte lacquer. You'll probably get it as an additive to mix in to normal lacquer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
