Flat Black: Looks hot, is impossible to take care of.

That 599 in flat black looks like a batmobile

Re: Matte Black, Oh baby.
The first pictures i saw of trojans car looked flat black for a second. I was almost hoping it was... it would have looked amazing and added that little bit more. Not that it doesnt already look amazing

Sweet look, but it would be hard to take care of.

Re: Matte Black, Oh baby.
I like the look of flat black!
Why would it be hard to care for? (sorry, just a silly "popcorn-like" question)

If you think regular black shows everything, flat black shows everything and magnifies it and then is hard to clean because the surface grabs everything.

Now, a proper flat with a good flat clear coat can be easier to maintain but it still shows a lot of things like the slightest finger prints and road oils and everything.

I've thought about doing a flat finish before but everyone I've talked to who's done them says they wouldn't do them again except for a strictly trailer queen show car.
