    usual glossy paint.. pagnagka scratch... just apply a layer of wax.. wala na..
    i think pag matte nawawala yung matte layer pag na scratch na..

    Matte black paint looks awesome when it's new and kept clean... but give it a few weeks, let it get dirty, and no matter how you clean it, it looks old and crappy.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    hmm. why not have your truck installed with Matte black stickers? at least those can look better and it's not permanent so the need of removing will be easy if you find it not a looker. Also, sometimes matte black color doesn't fit in proportions to every vehicle dimension. i mean, minsan di bagay.

    Not worth it. Hard to maintain. Very vulnerable to dirt. Scratches not removable ( stickers .. )
