why clear coat it if you are painting it flat black?

i dont know thats what im wondering? ive never painted in flat black so i dont know if clear coat protects it or just makes it shiny.

Clearcoat with flatting agent. BAM! Flat that you can wash. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif *edit* I believe Tattoo20v has flattened clear and its the whip! Modified by Plain at 5:10 PM 7-30-2007

yea i thought they had clear for flat black, but would it be in a common place like autozone or wal-mart ?

Re: Im feeling flat......black (blackoutjetta)

also im debating if i should put my euro plate on it or not, it has holes from the dealer plates and i think i should put the euro plate on there to cover it.or should i just put my va required plate

Re: Im feeling flat......black (blackoutjetta)

heres the grill (off the car) .....the eyelids are already on the car... will post pictures of it on the car tomorrow.... the reason the euro plate is on is because of the dealer holes

thanks a lot Russ. *chanting* RUSS RUSS RUSS. thanks a lot for all this info but...
this grill has just been laying around so i decided to do something. when i get the money i will get a GT front and i will get it done in flat black (or what ever color) professionally. Also it had the dealer plate holes in it so theres another reason in to not spend a lot of money into it. Again thanks and i still want those black wheels with red lip.. but not to get off topic... when i get the GT front i will def. take it to a real shop. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

here it is: flat black
again did it myself because its not worth paying to get it done because it has dealer holes and it will probably chip. I will get the GT grill when i get the money.
