ATTENTION: matte black paint owners/lovers

First, I want to say anyone who LOVES matte black paint (or black painted wheels) is in my humble opinion CRAZY!

If you are one of these INSANE persons, good news! Swissvax has come out with a line of products meant specifically for treating matte black paint. Why they would ever want to encourage matte black paint I have no idea but here it is . . .

I have no idea if Phil is going to be carrying this line, but I know Phil is my go to guy for Swissvax.

Not necessary IMO. I've used tons of sealants/waxes on flat black paint without issue. As long as there are no cleaners or harsh solvents, it will not alter the finish in any negative way.

I've never worked on a matte black paint myself. This product may be as useful as those waxes that are specifically meant for light or dark paint, but I thought it was worth noting.
