Anyone have pictures of...

Just wondering if anyone here has painted or has pictures of a Matte black deuce. The stealth color, like a light flat black I guess you can call it.. debating on that color for my truck. Not sure yet.. thanks!

Be careful with which paint you use. I painted my snowmobile trailer with some leftover flat black from a derby car. It looked cool when I did it. It has faded badly and is a lousy dark grey now. I need to repaint it , it looks terrible. It would be even worse on a large surface like a deuce.

Not exactly a deuce and not completely black, but a good looking truck. I believe it belongs to "donkdonk"

Just my opinion. I think the whole truck in flat black dosen't look that good. I think its because it is such a large area. I would go with a two tone color scheme using flat black as the primary. It could be a pretty suttle difference. Flat black looks good on motorcycles but its a small area and typically with some brushed metal accents.

as a matter of fact, I am painting one like that. I am in the process of reassembling the truck right now. pm me later on to remind me to post a picture.

Here's the famous CA truck, in gloss black. I have thought about painting one totally in gloss black.

A search for black deuce will pull up some results, A guy named YAnkee Deuce has a flat black deuce and is actually kinda close to you(Clifton Park). http://www.steelsoldiers.com/search.php?searchid=598335

Is that rattle can chrome on the rims stack bumper & mirrors? seems that would be an awfully expensive enterprise to have that done at a shop. but looks too good for a spray can.

Thanks for the pictures. I saw some of those gloss black ones and it just doesent seem right...

Im thinking more of a color like this

I know its a car and the like.. but the color is what Im after really..

Had a couple reasons for this.

The high temp paint I used on exhaust parts has this sort of finish, and the paint is really durable. Dries incredibly fast (doesent cure fast but dries fast so no running of course..) and has that OD Green like finish.. no reflecting, just sucking in the light and not letting it out per say. Seems almost like a tactical black?

I had my old chevy painted that flat black color, make sure that is actually a matte paint, not a primer, or it will fade.
Here is a pic of my truck, the guy at the paint shop called it sealer...
