has anyone found a flat black paint that stays black and does not turn grey after a while. ive tried a couple different brands and have yet to find something that looks like it did when first painted.

One of the members here with a very fast Lancer that is flat black,,,rubs the finish with WD-40 and it really stays and looks nice. Just a thought..

lol i use tire shine when i take it to the track or a show. it does look good but i would love a finish i dont have to warn people about touching. ill have to give wd a shot. stoners tire shine last for two weeks.

I think SEM brand paint makes a flat black paint that does not require a clear coat. Does your's have a clear coat over it? I would recommend getting a dual action polisher and using a mild polishing compound on it. Then maybe a coat of wax.

My two cents.

no clear coat just flat black paint. cant wax it as it is not a smooth finish

SEM bumper coat works well, and stays black. Body shop painted my hood which is flat black and has stayed black.
