Paint job?

[Beagle]

Im wondering how this would work. If I went to a dealer to buy a new Silverado and I wanted a flat black paint job with clear coat would it cost more for them to do that or could they just make that request before the truck is painted at the factory?

[Flicktitty]

stop at a chevy dealership and ask, i know a few new car companies are trying to get on this new trend and offer them but from what i've heard you have to order it that way.

Flat black with a clear??? That would make gloss black.

[70 cutlass 442]

ROFL, you truely are a knob!!

[Beagle]

no then it would look like gloss black.......

[Beagle]

beagz, would this be a flat black with gloss paint job or just a gloss paint job?

my buddy who wants to do this wants it to look like the truck on Rob and Big. Im just asking the question on here for him.

You sure do know everything lately, don't you?

I have no idea about ordering the vehicle from the factory that way, usually you have to choose from their production colors.

To get the flat look, you add a flattening agent in with the clear coat. The paint job is then just as durable as the next glossy painted car, yet keeps the flat look a lot of people are looking for.

yeah, Matte black

yeah, i know. i could've sworn that he said he welded the top back on, i gave him the back window for it. well guess not. i would actually buy that back, but NOT for how much he wants for it

[Breecher_7]

Not a fan, I think it looks like primer personally. Different strokes for different folks i guess.

[Z28Roxy]

Probably have to get the dealer or body shop to do that, since it's not a paint option for that truck AFAIK.

And also noteworthy if you have dealers order cars from the factory (so you customize the options) you usually don't get any of the dealer incentives for the car. But it's still cool to get exactly what you want.

[Philly-O]

have him order the truck in black and take it to a body shop after getting it and have them scuff the truck and re-clear it in a satin clear.

You can either do whta pork said and add flattner to the clear or you can buy flat clear. PPG's number is DCU2060. I can't think of duponts number off the top of my head. But that is another route you could take. That clear is also flexed so you can use it on your bumpers without worries as well.

GM will not paint a "special" color just for ONE person.

same reason why you can't order one by one specific options, you have to do packages.

it would slow the assembly line down for prodcution

MURDER IT OUT!. i really like the way it looks.. im not sure why.. but i like it

No shit, but he never said he was looking for a satin clear. He said flat black w/ a clear coat. I always LOL when people do DIY paint at home w/ a flat black and a clear and go, why the hell is it so shiny? You always know everything.

Yea, you can paint. Just like you can run the mile in 6 minutes, right?

Yes I have insurance, and a bike, and a truck, and a car. What do I win? I suppose you ate all the cookies :banana1:
