looking for best satin black paint
For use on under hood areas and blacking out trim and door handles.
I was going to use DP-90 but am finding it is not tough enough for a top coat, I do like the e-coat look of it tho.
I have added flattening agent to awlgrip before but don't really like the look.
so any suggestions for a satin black hard enough for door handles?
Thanks

Suggest investigating PPG Delfleet Essential. They have a factory pkg Flat Black or you can take the Gloss and add flattening agent to make semi gloss
or any sheen you can experiment to your liking
Its a single stage urethane with a hardner component.

Underfloor is SPI Primer with small amount of Reducer so as to make it flow out smooth.
Firewall Pics are PPG Delfleet Semi Gloss MIx
LOOK At the RESULTS

Thanks all!
I think I will give SPI a try.. The ppg high end stuff like dp-90 is stupid expensive.
I have tried the eastwood 2k rattle can stuff and was not to impressed, and you have to use the whole can at once.
Thanks again for the suggestions

Delfleet Essential Semi Gloss Mix
Greetings,
Your Delfleet Essentials semi gloss looks awesome! Can you tell me how to replicate your mix ratios? I plan to use SPI epoxy primer also.
Thanks!
