Flat black paint for box art body?

[yellowdatsun]

What kind of flat black paint do people use for the *outside* of the body, to paint in the roll cage areas? Is there a flat black paint meant to go on the outside? Or are they just using normal paint, or even the Krylon fusion plastic paint?

The same paint you use for the inside of the body

They don't make a "flat" black in lexan paint colors, and regular black is just semi-gloss. No?

than use testors flt black.

I would paint the black on the inside of the body and use Tamiya PS-55 flat clear on the outside.

I do the same thing as Terry, but use Pactra Outlaw Black on both inside & outside. The outside paint dries to a semi-matte finish. The inside paint is just for when the outside paint gets scratched or dinged, it doesn't show as much. Using Pactra or other Lexan paint ensures a good bond with the Lexan inside & out.
