this winter im doing alot or work on my bones all of my engine covers are at the powder coater to get a new gloss black finish on them and I was going to paint my tins all gloss black as well. At first i was not a fan of the flat black cross bones but they are growing on me. So now I cant decide weather or not to paint the tins gloss black or flat black. What does everyone think? Will the flat black tins look good with the gloss black engine covers?

 

I luv my flat black tins, but that is why we all have choices.

 

Go with the flat black.

 

Flat Black ...

 

Gloss black for sure unless your going to do the forks too.

 

I made the engine and exhaust flat black and everything around it gloss black.

Flat black for the tins.

 

I did a lot of black powdercoating last winter and I went with gloss black on most of the stuff...If I had to do it again it would be flat. It would seem to me that the flat would be more durable to scratches and smudges.

 

i like the gloss but the gloss black shows a lot of little scratches so probably would go with the flat .

 

If you go with flat, do the forks too, or they'll look like a turd in a punch bowl.
