Neat. I was wondering if you could buy that stuff. There are trim pieces in my car I want to paint with it to eliminate reflections in the cabin.

  Can I get in on that action? I don't understand why instrument cluster bezels are universally chromed but I hate it and my eyes hate it and I'd really like to look at my gauges without getting blinded.

    Sadly, from their FAQ[0]: Q. Can I paint my car / bike etc... A. NO - 3.0 is quite fragile and will just scratch off, it won’t weather well. Q. Can I put a topcoat over it then? A. NO that will destroy the matte effect, and many topcoats (including our COAT) will react with the paint and ruin the finish. https://culturehustle.com/collections/black/products/black-3-0-the-worlds-blackest-black-acrylic-paint-150ml https://culturehustle.com/collections/black/products/black-3...

      Should be okay inside the car though...

        Not sure if it's okay in high temperatures though. When the air temp in the car can go as high as 60 C, black surfaces can go as high as 80 C or more.

    Hah, yep, same situation on both my Ford vehicles. I think I’ll end up removing the trim, masking the pieces I dont want to paint, and then hitting the chrome with Plastidip spray. It’s an aerosol can that contains a rubberized coating. It comes out looking like a matte finish paint but it can be peeled off of most surfaces so it’s not permanent.
